With a remarkable diameter of 42 cm, this piece stands out not only for its size but also for its rich and detailed decoration. Main features: Period and provenance: The plate is dated to the Kangxi period, ranging from the late 17th to the early 18th century. This was a period of great flourishing for Chinese porcelain production, especially that intended for export to Europe. Decorative style: The decoration of the plate features a vibrant and complex style that combines classic cobalt blue with overglaze orange enamels (iron red) and gilding, sometimes described as "Chinese Imari". Subject: The decorative motif, finely hand-painted, depicts mountain landscape scenes with trees and stylized pavilions or houses. The center of the plate houses a more elaborate landscape, while the edges are decorated with cloud-shaped reserves ("cartouches") that in turn contain floral motifs or smaller landscape scenes, on a cobalt blue background or decorated with foliage. Dimensions: The large size of 42 cm in diameter makes it a serving dish or a decorative element of great visual impact and high collectible value. Condition: The overall condition is excellent.
