About this work
Porcelain was fired in Jingdezhen, in the southern China interior, large quantities of which were brought to Canton to be embellished in workshops specialized in applying enamel and gold decorations. This was quite often done following a model provided by the European commissioners, as here. In this case the example was an etch of Jacob de Wit.
