Plate with a depiction of the month of March

Pierre Raymond, 1561

In Limoges, plates were usually made in series, among others with the Twelve Months of the year. According to the inscription on the edge of this plate, it depicts March. A couple on horseback, however, is usually interpreted as representing the love that blossoms in May.
