Plate (tagliere)
A tin-glazed plate with white painted decoration on a dark ground, its border filled with grotesques, scrolls, winged creatures and putti. At the center, a nude man and woman stand in a small landscape beside a structure, framed by a band of white leaf-shaped petals.
Look closer: A small building or column stands beside the figures in the central landscape.
