218 - A five antique blue and underglazed red "fish pattern" dish Each plate shows slight variation in the placement of the fish-and-flower motifs and in tonal depth — a quality that reflects the handmade character distinctive to kosometsuke ("old blue-and-white" ware). Unlike the even, uniform painting of modern wares, there is real charm in the subtle gradation of brushwork and the gentle irregularity of the patterns, qualities that speak eloquently to the free and unaffected aesthetic sensibility unique to kosometsuke. Six-character mark of Chenghua and probably of the period. H: 2.6cm D: 14.3cm ×5 Chips and crazing are visible. China, Ming Dynasty
