I would suggest to be careful with items from this source. Even when viewing the thumbnail image it is already clear that the layout of the decoration is not right.
A closer look makes it appear as if it was painted outside China, so perhaps again from SE Asia or elsewhere. Apart from not knowing what some elements of the decoration depict, or how they should look, the painter also mixed up decorations of different dynasties. A very low quality fake.
If you want to look at original Ming wares, I would suggest you check out the website of Nanhai Marine Archaeology.
