Japanese Arita Blue and White Plate with Island Scene

An early 20th century plate from Arita in Japan’s southern island of Kyushu has a vivid underglaze cobalt and white scene of a rugged coastline. Gnarled pine trees overhang a house nestled below a steep cliff. A boatman can be seen nearing the shore. At the base of the pine trees, a cobalt stamp with the characters “HI” (pronounced “he”) is integrated into the scene to identify the maker of this piece. The plate is in pristine condition. Dimensions: diameter 12 ¼” (31 cm).
