A white ceramic bowl features an enamel scene across a speckled green ground. On the left, a slender spotted animal pulls a wheeled cart laden with pink peaches toward the right. A woman follows in a flowing red and pink gown, accompanied by two attendants in green and gray robes. Two thin blue lines encircle the rim, while a red spiral pattern borders the foot.
