Dish with Compass and Sail Ship Motifs in Wucai Polychrome Decoration

Summary

[edit]
Description
中文（繁體）：明萬曆五彩羅經帆船紋盤（漳州窯，吉美國立亞洲藝術博物館藏），臺北市士林區陽明山次分區臨溪里（雙溪庄外雙溪）
English: Porcelains produced in the Zhangzhou kilns in Fujian, China are called Zhangzhou ware. This large dish is representative of it. As shown on the piece, the surface is decorated with motifs in turquoise blue and alum red. The fish and sail ship motifs, in particular, express the theme of sea voyages. Written in the centre are three characters, "Tianxia Yi (One under the Heaven)", surrounded by two circles of longer inscriptions. The inner set refers to the nine stars in the Taoist Big Dipper, which consists of the two "attendant" stars, and the outer set refers to the heavenly and earthly ordinals as well as the divination hexagrams from Yi Ching (Book of Changes). Scholars pointed out that the inscriptions, "Tianxia Yi", may be interpreted as anchoring the world through one direction, and that perhaps this dish could be used as a compass.
