E18 – Chinese export porcelain plate. Decorated in grisaille and gilt on the rim with a carefully arranged scroll of tendrils, branches, formal leaves and berries in the style of the du Paquier period of Viennese porcelain and in the center a carefully drawn scene of the crucifixation, after a European style drawing or print. There is one soldier mocking and four others casting lots for the clothes of Jesus. In the background are Mary and St John and a crowd. The scene with its considerable detail, could have been composed from European sources by a Jesuit missionary. This plate is one of the best of this kind.
