Polychrome underglaze paint on silceous earthenware , 12.7 x 18 cm (5 x 7 1/16 in.)

Commentary

Pottery made in Kϋtahya in Turkey follows in the tradition of underglaze painting of the Ottoman Empire. The bright yellow tulips on this small pitcher recall stylized designs out of the ceramic workshops at Iznik.
