About this work

This image shows a bright red bowl with gold and floral designs sitting on a matching plate. The plate has small white flower shapes scattered across it. Beside the plate is a rolled-up scroll with black writing on it. The bowl looks like it’s meant for tea or food, and the scroll might be a poem or note. The colors are bold and simple, with no shading—just flat areas of color. If you like this, check out The Metropolitan Museum of Art for more prints like this.
