EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a side plate from the Qianlong period, dating back to approximately 1782. Crafted with delicate porcelain by the Chinese School during the Qing Dynasty, this exquisite piece measures 19.5 cm in diameter and is currently held in a private collection. What makes this side plate truly remarkable is its unique history and design. Originally created for the English market, it draws inspiration from Giovanni Battista Cipriani's Four Seasons series. Specifically, this plate features an enchanting Summer motif that was engraved by Francesco Bartolozzi. The intricate floral pattern border adds a touch of elegance to the overall composition, while sepia and grisaille techniques bring depth and dimension to the artwork. The presence of cherubs and putti further enhances its charm, evoking a sense of whimsy and playfulness. With its rich cultural heritage and impeccable craftsmanship, this side plate exemplifies the artistic prowess of both Chinese artisans and European influences during that era. It serves as a testament to cross-cultural exchange through trade routes like export ceramics. Thanks to Paul Freeman's skillful photography, we can now appreciate every intricate detail of this historical masterpiece without limitations or commercial restrictions.
