Bowl with Xiwangmu and Attendants

A white porcelain bowl with a flaring wall, painted in famille verte enamels of green, orange-red, and blue. Three women in long robes attend to a tray and basket on a grassy ground, with a deer and a cart at the edges. A blue line runs under the rim and a red key-fret band circles the foot.

Look closer: A small red spot on the bowl wall near the upper right edge.
