Description

This studio still life photograph features an elaborate blue and white ceramic tureen with a matching domed lid. The body and lid are decorated with a fine, openwork lattice design in a vibrant shade of blue, contrasted by crisp white relief ornamentation, twisted rope handles, and a looped handle on top. The vessel rests upon four ornate white animal paw feet. The lighting is clean and directional, casting a soft shadow to the right against a seamless white background.
