About this work

This is a round, flat plate with a simple design. The background is a pale yellow, and the edges have a black zigzag pattern. In the center, there’s a stylized plant with long, curved leaves painted in dark blue. The leaves are uneven and look hand-drawn, almost like a quick sketch. The numbers "1756" are written inside the plant’s leaves, which might mean something about when this was made. The plate sits on three small metal feet, giving it a slightly raised look. If you like this kind of hand-painted pottery, check out Romanticism.
