Label TextThe green lotus leaves and reeds are alive with bursting vitality and freshness, and would look entirely realistic if one chose to overlook the green lotus blossom at far left and another odd-colored one at upper left. It is clear that the potter was more interested in the famille verte palette than in a faithful representation.
