Note du spécialiste

The scene is based on an engraving by Philis Galle (1537-1612) after a composition by Marten de Vos (1532-1603). For a similar dish, see the Victoria & Albert Museum, London, museum no. 7170-1860. Also compare the example in the Édouard de Rothschild collection, see G. de Rothschild and S. Grandjean, Bernard Palissy et son école, Paris, 1952, no. XXI, pl. 24, here called 'La Belle Jardinière.'
