The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Round plate with a flat bottom and slightly raised edge. The plate is white with a design painted in black. The interior features a central image of a potted plant with a single stem and multiple flowers at the top. The pot has a square pattern. A ribbon banner with the letters "V.Y.O.R" is placed horizontally across the middle of the plate, behind the plant. The plate's rim is decorated with a pattern of leaves and flowers. The plate appears to be old and worn, with visible signs of use and aging. Black and white photograph.
