Porcelain blue and white covered soup tureen with platter depicting dragons and clouds.
Soup Tureen with Platter and Lid
19th century
Gift of William C. Weese, M.D., LSA '65
2020/2.71A-C
This ovoid tureen stands on four curved, leaf-like feet that sprout upward and join together to form a pair of handles at either end of the vessel. The body of the tureen, composed of gentle undulating curves, is decorated with bright red and yellow flowers and leaves painted with overglaze enamel. A scallion, modeled in relief, rests bundled together with sprigs of parsley on top of the lid, introducing a playful trompe-l'oeil element. An onion forms the knob on the top of the lid.
