"Wanli Blue and White Plate with Figure Design" has an outward-curved mouth and a folded rim, a rounded body with a circular foot, covered in white glaze with blue painted decorations. The rim is adorned with floral patterns. The central part of the plate depicts a scene from the story of Liu Chen and Ruan Zhao encountering immortals on Mount Tiantai during the Eastern Han Dynasty. Later, this legend of "Liu and Ruan ascending Mount Tiantai" came to symbolize mortal encounters with immortals and sometimes referred to a man's favor from a beautiful woman. The base has a sandy texture, and there are minor glaze flakes on the rim.
