126 - Very large Japanese (Arita) porcelain dish with peacock decoration, circa 1700. A very large circular porcelain dish with a widely flared rim, decorated in the Imari style with underglaze blue, iron red, polychrome glazes, and gold. In the center, within a large circular medallion, two peacocks are depicted among rocks and a plum tree. The rim features a rich compartmentalized design, organized into large panels alternately filled with floral compositions and birds perched on the branches of flowering trees. These scenes are separated by bold ornamental motifs in blue, iron red, black, and gold: broad, sinuous arabesques, stylized fans, and half-chrysanthemum blossoms, enriched with peonies and foliage. Diameter: 50 cm (Very good condition, slight wear on the black glazes).
