Overview
The couple on this tile are having a romantic fishing experience. We assume that this has been a more common kind of activity for couples during the 17th century. The tile was made around 1640 and is decorated with an 'accolade' shaped border and 'Wanli' inspired corner motifs. It is in a great condition. Note that it has a small glued chip left of the lower right corner.
