Saucer-dish with a fish and floral scrolls

anonymous, c. 1400 - c. 1599

This superb plate is decorated with motifs in red and green enamels and gold on a cream ground. The fish in the centre, a carp feeding on water plants, is painted with such freedom and energy that it almost seems to be leaping out of the plate.
