The image is a photograph of a plaque on a wall. The plaque is made of white porcelain and has Chinese text written on it. The text is written in black ink and is in a traditional Chinese font. Below the text, there is a description of the porcelaine, which was first made in the early third century as shown by examples from Eastern Han tombs at Changsha in Hunan province. Over the next seven hundred years it was produced in increasing quantity in North China, and quality improved. The most outstanding type, produced by Kilns at Neigu and Lincheng in Hebei province, was Xing ware, which Tang connoisseurs praised by likening it to silver or snow.
