This image shows plate lxvii (= 67). Jones’ original description of this plate from his “description of the plates” (page 9–15), transcribed literally, using jones’ orthography:
“another of the same class, painted china. ”
additional hints by commons users:
jones’ short description “another of the same class” refers to the two previous tables (lxv and lxvi), which show “painted china bottle[s], of pure chinese composition. ”
the image shows many little scratches, traces of dust etc.;many of these artifacts are already present in the reprint, and must originate either from the original chromolithographic print, or from the offset reproduction process which was needed to produce the reprint. Owen Jones - Examples of Chinese Ornament - 1867 - plate 067 - 300ppi
