To all

I discussed this plate, whose images are attached, a few months ago.

Now I am reposting here, because although I ended up concluding that the plate is Kangxi period, something recently has made me reevaluate my position.

At this link I and some other people here discussed a convincing-looking Kangxi plate

- I argued that there was something slightly off about the painting style, and that it was probably therefore Kangxi revival (late 19th century).

Unfortunately, I have just realised that this probable revival piece has *exactly* the same shop mark on the underside as my dragon and carp plate. Also the foot rim looks pretty much identical. I mean, look at the thing!

Would anyone else concur with my revised view, that this dragon-and-carp plate is Kangxi Revival from the time of Cixi, and not an actual Kangxi dish?
