 The peony arabesque on the reverse side and the square inscription inside the base are almost the same as in Figure 20, and the miniature painting on the edge of the prospective window is also similar, suggesting that the overglaze painting was done by the same artist. The painting within the circular window depicts an old man with a beard holding a gourd in his right hand and two children under an old pine tree on a cliff. The rim is decorated with a fan, gourds, and birds, and the ground is finely painted with chrysanthemums and peonies. The colors of the paint are also extremely vivid.
