Dingwall, DSO through The Art Fund\r\nThis round dish, probably a fruit bowl, has a raised rounded edge. The decorative motif, which is called the “thorny rose” or “dog rose” is inspired by oriental models in monochrome underglaze blue which in some rare instances may have the addition of coloured insects (A. Biancalana, in LA MANIFATTURA TOSCANA DEI GINORI 1998, p. 64- 65, fig. 36-38; A. Biancalana, in LUCCA E LE PORCELLANE  2001, cat. 63; CASPRINI 2000, p. 179-180). The decoration is mentioned for the first time presumibly in 1747 when it is referred to as “with a rose” in a price list, the Tariffa delle Porcellane Pure, that is, for plain white porcelain and the Tariffa delle Porcellane dipinte for decorated porcelain (AGL, XV, 2, f. 138, Manifattura di Doccia. Documenti vari, c. 484). In the inventory that was drawn up at Doccia in 1757 after the death of Marquis Carlo Ginori the motif was defined as “alla rosa blù” (with a blue rose) or “alla rosa canina” (with a dog rose, AGL, I, 2, f. 37, Fabbrica delle Porcellane di Doccia. Scritture e Documenti, fasc. 6). After that year we find no further trace of this type of decoration except on a few pieces of masso bastardo and, consequently, after 1761, which were perhaps made as replacements (A. Biancalana, in LA MANIFATTURA TOSCANA DEI GINORI 1998, p. 126-127, fig. 38). This type of decoration with a single blue rose in the centre was made not only at Doccia but also at other Italian factories like  Casali and Callegari in Pesaro (BISCONTINI UGOLINI 1986, p. 82) and Antonibon in Bassano (R. Ausenda, in LA CERAMICA DEGLI ANTONIBON 1990, cat. 10-12).\r\nA.B.\r\nBibliography: LANE 1954, plate 45B; MALLET\r\n2011, plate 29; MALLET 2013, p. 25, fig. 29\r\n\r\n"}],"production":"","productionType":{"text":"","id":""},"contentDescription":"","contentPlaces":[],"associatedPlaces":[],"contentPerson":[],"associatedPerson":[],"contentOrganisations":[],"associatedOrganisations":[],"contentPeople":[],"associatedPeople":[],"contentEvents":[],"associatedEvents":[],"contentOthers":[{"text":"flowers","id":"x35571"},{"text":"roses","id":"x31675"},{"text":"diaper","id":"AAT231169"}],"contentConcepts":[],"contentLiteraryRefs":[],"galleryLabels":[{"text":"Plate\r\nPorcelain\r\nITALY (DOCCIA); 1740-1745\r\nGift of Lt.-Col.
