Conservation Notes

Earthenware, covered front and back with a brilliant-white tin glaze. The painting is in blue, yellow, orange, pale green, purple, and white; the green has bubbled slightly. On the front, near the edge, are three kiln-support marks. There is overpaint on the rim at nine o'clock, ten o'clock, and three o'clock. The glaze on the back is cracked.
