Botanical Banana Motif Ceramic Wall Plate

A circular ceramic plate featuring a central botanical-style illustration of bananas. The artwork depicts a cluster of bananas, including one whole unpeeled fruit, one partially peeled banana, and four distinct slices. The color palette consists of earthy browns, ochre yellows, and deep forest greens for the oversized foliage in the background. The style is reminiscent of naturalist illustrations from the mid-20th century, characterized by fine black line work and realistic shading. The plate is constructed from cream-colored glazed ceramic or earthenware. It is currently mounted for display using a four-prong spring-loaded metal wire plate hanger. While no maker's mark is visible from the front, the glaze appears smooth with minor localized crazing, which is typical for vintage glazed pottery. The illustration is likely a transfer print with hand-painted accents or a high-quality lithograph application. No significant chips or cracks are visible on the front surface, though the edges are partially obscured by the metal hanger. This piece represents a mid-to-late 20th-century decorative aesthetic often found in kitchen or dining room decor, leaning towards the traditional or country-style genre.
