Dish with male figures in a landscape
This dish is painted with two figures – one an archer, carrying a bow, and the other a scholar. The rock is tiger-shaped and has a face. Leaves, butterflies and flowers are painted around the flat rim. There is a six-character apocryphal Chenghua mark in a double circle in underglaze blue on the base. Early Qing enamels fire as thin, translucent watercolour-like colours, dominated by green, black, aubergine, red and yellow pigments. Black (made from manganese and cobalt) and iron-pigmented red were used for outlining as they were more opaque than the other colours.

山水人物圖盤
此盤繪有兩位人物,一位持弓箭,另一位為學士。岩石形似虎,更繪虎面。環繞折沿繪樹葉、蝴蝶及花卉圖案。器底青花雙圈內署成化六字偽託年款。清早期燒成的釉上彩為稀薄的透明水彩狀,以綠、黑、茄皮紫、紅及黃彩為主。由於黑彩(由猛及鈷元素呈色)及含鐵的礬紅彩相比其他顏色更為不透明,因此被用於勾勒輪廓。
