Rare Large Chinese Export Porcelain 'Table Bay' Cape of Good Hope Dish, C. 1740
About the Item
A rare large Chinese export porcelain 'Table Bay' dish
Qianlong period, circa 1735-1750
Diam. 27.5 cm
This version of the ‘Table Bay’ porcelain documented is decorated in polychrome enamels and gold and with a rim decorated with a Meissen-style border. The Cantonese artists responsible for the Table Bay dishes must have been given a sketch or print to guide them. There most likely were more artists who painted these dishes because there are many minor differences in the designs. The ships on the present dish have no rigging, and in that respect, it is similar to a dish that belonged to Hendrik Swellengrebel, Governor of the Cape of Good Hope from 1739 till 1751, but in other respects, there are slight differences (see Uit Verre Streken, June 2009, item 15).
For a pair of small but similar table bay dishes previously sold by us, see, idem, November 2021, no. 37, and for a pair en grisaille see, June 2022, no. 19.
