AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Japan’s Arita plate with warrior and lady in a garden – Meiji period
A beautiful Japanese Arita porcelain plate from the Meiji period (1868–1912), finely painted in cobalt underglaze with a detailed figurative scene.
At the center is a scene depicting a Japanese warrior in full armor facing an elegantly dressed lady, placed in a walled garden beneath blooming branches. The delicate rendering of faces, clothing, the armor, and the various patterns attests to careful painting.
The wide rim is richly decorated with alternating cartouches featuring flowering plants and stylized birds, surrounded by densely worked floral and geometric patterns. This richly decorated rim thus forms a beautiful frame around the more open figurative scene in the middle.
The reverse bears a six-character mark. A decorative and finely executed example of Japanese Arita porcelain from the Meiji period, with an appealing portrayal of a ‘warrior and beauty in a garden’.
