CIRCA 1830 Depicting the Hongs at Canton, Western ships at anchor before the Canton waterfront with flags flying before the American, British and Dutch factories and, in the foreground, two small islands with folly forts 8 ? in. (20.9 cm.) diameter
Enameled with the iconic view so familiar from China Trade oil paintings, this dish seems to show the Canton waterfront in about 1830. Only a tiny handful of porcelains were made showing Canton; the only other known dish like this was in the collection of Peter H.B. Frelinghuysen, Jr (together with a dish showing Whampoa), sold Christie's New York, 24 January 2012, lot 104.
