Pigeon Bird Scene Plate

This is a really nice Art Nouveau / Jugendstil period plate made by KPM in the early 20th century. The plate is hand painted with a bird scene including two pigeons pecking at some food in a nice landscape surrounding. The rim is decorated in the Jugendstil style with raised gold scrolls as well as some leaves and flowers and a slightly greenish ground color between the scrolls which is hard to see in the pictures. A truly superb plate and it is in superb condition. The piece is just over 1 inch tall and just under 9.875 inches in diameter. It is marked underneath with the under glaze blue scepter as well as the red orb mark as well as a painter's mark, some numbers and the usual impressed marks of the period as shown. Also the name of the bird in black script in German - Tauben . Please email me for more information or other pictures.
