A cream earthenware plate is decorated with a detailed, dark brown landscape. A border of white stars on a dark ground encircles the rim. On the right, thick tree trunks frame a view of mountains and water. To the left, a rocky ledge with a railing juts into the scene. Fine, dense lines and stippled shading define the scenery across the vessel's flat, circular surface.
