 This is a 5-sun plate in light colors similar to the “Dish with a design of leaves” and is also the most skillful of its kind. The center of the plate is decorated with a rock in underglaze blue, with undergrowth in yellow, and three bamboo grass plants are depicted spontaneously. The bluish-green coloring is refreshing, and the design is elegant even for a five-sun dish. The outside of the dish is decorated on three sides with a peony branch pattern, and the line drawing is also graceful, and only the best examples of this type of dish show this type of back design. The pedestal is a comb-shaped pedestal.
