A Chinese famille rose eggshell porcelain plate from the Yongzheng era (1723–1735) — its scene of a seated court lady and child rendered in delicate pink and gold — comes to life on this art reproduction postcard from London's Victoria and Albert Museum. Drawn from the museum's Aston Bequest collection, it's a small, elegant piece of Chinese decorative art history.
