Two associated blue-and-white 'landscape' plates, Early Kangxi period, circa 1662-1674 28.2 cm diam. (2). Provenance: Private collection, Brisbane There are numerous dishes of this shape, of varying sizes, with peach or flower marks and a footring that looks almost 18th century. Some are in 'Master of the Rocks' style such as this lot. The various painting styles used on them all seem to relate closely to those on dishes that can be dated before 1674, when the particular kilns were destroyed. For a similar example, see Michael Butler, Margaret Medley, Stephen Little, Seventeenth Century Chinese Porcelain from the Butler Family Collection, Art Services International, Alexandria, USA, 1990. p. 145, pl. 94.

- Circa - A Latin term meaning 'about', often used in the antique trade to give an approximate date for the piece, usually considered to be five years on either side of the circa year. Thus, circa 1900 means the piece was made about 1900, probably between 1895 and 1905. The expression is sometimes abbreviated to c.1900.
