Specialist Notes

For comparison see: G. Morazzoni, Le porcellane italiane, Milan, 1960, table 202 b; a coffee pot with similar decoration is published in L. Ginori Lisci, La porcellana di Doccia, 1963, fig. 61.In these examples we find the polychrome landscape decoration with “conifers with drooping branches and often some small branches falling from the grassy terrace” (Ibid., p. 82).
