The mark on the present dish indicates that this was made for the Princedom of Zhao, one of the 24 principalities set up by the Hongwu Emperor during the early years of the dynasty. According to the research of Ming Wilson, the owner of this group of dishes could have been either Zhu Cigan, who inherited the title Prince of Zhao in 1617, or his successor, Zhu Changyu, who was captured by Qing troops in 1644, see discussion in Rare Marks on Chinese Ceramics, London, 1988, pp. 30-1, where one of these in the Percival
