This image captures a museum display featuring historical pottery, likely in London, United Kingdom. The primary subject is a dark green or greyish-green "Bottle, maebyeong or prunus vase" from the Joseon period, early 1400s, made of Buncheong ware with inlaid decoration. The vase exhibits intricate patterns, particularly on its upper body and neck. Behind it, several smaller bowls or vases are also displayed on white platforms. The pottery is housed in a glass display case with light pinkish-peach and light blue panels. Reflections in the glass show parts of a colorful, large artwork or painting and silhouettes of people, suggesting museum visitors or staff, engaging in the activity of viewing the exhibit. Two informational text panels are visible. The first, titled "Changing times, changing tastes," describes the featured bottle as a transitional piece between Goryeo celadon and Buncheong wares, noting the development of new decoration techniques focusing on surface embellishment. The second panel provides details on the "Bottle, maebyeong or prunus vase," stating its origin from the Joseon period, early 1400s, and identifying it as Buncheong ware. It clarifies that despite resemblance to Goryeo celadon, its color is more greyish-green, as indicated by the term "buncheong" (powdered green). It also mentions that Buncheong wares were widely used but were eventually replaced by white porcelain around 1550 as tastes changed. Partial text referencing "el1400 05" is also visible.
