This is a hand painted 17th century, late Ming dynasty, porcelain Jar or small Vase hand painted in a blue and white figural scene, which we attribute to the Wanli / transitional period, circa 1625 - 1640. This piece may be from the Hatcher shipwreck cargo but we have no certificate or paperwork to support this. Please note, since the Hatcher collection was auctioned by Christies in 1984/1985 ( 40 years ago) many pieces have now lost their original auction paperwork and certification. The Jar/ Vase is fairly thickly potted with a very white glaze to the porcelain. It is decorated with a man and a boy stood against a tree with rocks, mountains and flying bats in the background all hand painted in various shades of a clear under-glaze cobalt blue. The irregular shaped head, bald high forehead, and straight pencilled beard with moustache support this date and period. Overall a good Chinese Ming period porcelain small vase.
