Such a bowl appears in the Madonna and Child in the Royal Collections, Stockholm, that Piero di Cosimo (1462 to 1521) painted in the early 16th century. There are examples in many of the major museums in Europe, and an example in the Robert Lehman collection in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
