The center of the *istoriato* dish depicts a scene from the myth of Rinaldo and Armida (based on Torquato Tasso's *Jerusalem Delivered*).
Although unmarked, the dish is consistent with Italian production from the late 19th century, originating from a workshop in the Abruzzo or Tuscany region.
It is in excellent condition, with no restorations, breaks, or hairline cracks.
The dish measures 63 cm in diameter.
