The central pattern and the elaborate scroll work border are after a
Meissen porcelain plate of about 1740, with a design attributed to
Petrus Schenk the Elder (1660-1711), an engraver and cartographer
active in Amsterdam and Leipzig who had been sent to Japan by
the VOC around 1700. The dog has been described as a Pekinese
because of the Chinese connection but described in sources focused
on European origins as a Bolognese dog or spaniel.
