Description: Antique Chinese blue and white porcelain charger 18th century Diameter: 26.6 cmCondition: Good. There is a small, barely noticeable chip on the rim. This is an antique Chinese blue and white porcelain charger. It was made in the early Qing period, no later than the 18th century. The plate features a depiction of flowers, grasses, and a bird, symbols believed to convey auspicious meanings in traditional Chinese culture. For example, the peony, depicted at the center of the charger, is a symbol of good fortune, happiness, and prosperity, a legacy passed down through generations, since the Tang dynasties. Compared to Western paintings of the same period, Chinese paintings are more abstract, emphasizing essence / feeling over detailed representation. In fact, abstraction has been a dominant style in Chinese art since ancient times. In contrast, the abstract painting style only began to emerge in the West in the late 19th century. Why is this the case?
