A very similar Jiajing blue and white cup of the same shape and size is illustrated in The Complete Collection of Treasures of the Palace Museum - 35 - Blue and White Porcelain with Underglaze Red (II), Hong Kong, 2000, p. 149, no. 138. (Fig. 1) The decoration on the Beijing cup is painted in a different style, and the underglaze blue appears to be of a more inky tone.
