拍品描述
Ottoman Empire. Well potted, the deep rounded sides supported on a straight foot and rising to a broad everted rim. Finely painted under the glaze in bole-red, cobalt-blue, emerald-green, and black with a central floral medallion encircled by a band of intersecting circles against a spiral ground, the rim with similar spiral decoration interspersed by subtly stylized bird heads and foliate designs, the exterior sides with floral sprays and circles.Provenance: A private collection in Geneva, Switzerland, acquired between the 1960s and 1970s.Condition: Very good condition with expected wear and firing irregularities, fritting to rim, glaze lines, the glaze further with light abrasions, minimal flaking, and slightly discolored areas mostly at the rim and exterior sides, few minor rim hairlines, the unglazed foot with few old shallow chips and a small firing crack. The foot drilled with a circular aperture for wall mounting with associated nibbling around the edges. An Iznik pottery dish in such well-preserved condition, with no repairs or touchups whatsoever, must be considered rare.Weight: 748 g Dimensions: Diameter 26 cmThis dish belongs to a select group of Iznik wares decorated with a tight wave-scroll background pattern which was favored by a particular Iznik atelier in the 1580s also referred to by Julian Raby as the "Turquoise workshop" (see Nurhan Atasoy and Julian Raby, Iznik: The Pottery of Ottoman Turkey, London, 1989, pp. 249, 260, and 263). Recalling the 'breaking wave' and 'wave-and-rock' border designs that characterize Iznik dishes, these miniature spirals at once fill in the composition of the dish and vivify its overall effect.The strong abstract design on this dish is a striking example of the innovations taking place in Iznik design at the end of the sixteenth century. While the concept of abstraction was not new, it took on a heightened emphasis at this date, with compositions becoming more varied, playful, and eclectic. The interplay of spiral scrolls, concentric bands, and boldly overlapping circles creates a rhythmic surface almost kaleidoscopic in effect.Literature comparison: Compare a related dish of similar design, albeit with a rock-and-wave border, in the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation, Lisbon, illustrated by Nurhan Atasoy and Julian Raby, Iznik: The Pottery of Ottoman Turkey, London, 1989, no. 498.Auction result comparison: Type: Closely related Auction: Sotheby's London, 9 October 2013, lot 150 Price: GBP 20,000 or approx.
