While a number of Qianlong examples of this design have been published
                and sold at auction, Yongzheng blue and white examples such as the
                present dish appear to be rare. A similar blue and white example was sold
                at Sotheby’s Hong Kong, 31 October 2004, lot 176. And a dish of this rare
                pattern, with a yellow ground, in the Percival David Foundation is illustrated
                in Oriental Ceramics, The World’s Great Collections, vol. 7, Tokyo, 1987, no.
                247. The painting of the peaches compares closely to that on a Yongzheng-

                and Robert Chang sold at Christie’s Hong, Colours of Perfection, Important
                Chinese Ceramics from the Robert Chang Collection, 31 October 2000, lot
                815.
