Chinese Porcelain Charger with 'Boys' Peeking
Kangxi Period (1661 until 1722)
Well-painted and made for export, perhaps to keep the Japanese market, this large plate has a diaper band border intercepted by four stylized floral and leaf clusters. The scene at center, of children peeking through a doorway at a group of adults, was a popular one.
D. 16 1/2 in.
