Description
Pattern of blue flowers and leaves connected with stems against a white background. This decoration is described as follows by the author:
From a bottle of blue and white china; a very fine example of symmetrical arrangement: it is also interesting as showing the limit of shade and relief in the representation of flowers—a limit which the Chinese constantly reach, but never exceed.
