Nevers Earthenware Plate - 17th Century

This plate, resting on a foot, features a blue monochrome decoration on a white ground, composed of floral bouquets and blueberries, enlivened by an animal scene depicting a snail and two birds, one of which holds a earthworm in its beak.
The reverse is decorated with a more naïve floral motif.

The enamel shows light wear consistent with use and is in very good condition.
