The decorations are very consistent with the examples made for export purposes by showing classic Chinese landscape scenes and the central picture of the boy riding the ox. An image made very popular during the Kangxi period onward. Further use of a pagoda, bridge and numerous pine trees and panels of domestic scenes inform westerners of life in China.
