About the Item

A boat with two figures standing on it, seemingly engaged in fishing with a net. Below the boat, on the shore, there are two more figures involved in a different activity, possibly cooking or preparing food. The background includes trees with hanging branches and other natural elements, creating a serene and picturesque atmosphere. The intricate and detailed painting on the porcelain exudes an antique charm.

It is believed the ship was a Chinese merchant’s cargo on its way from Canton (Guangzhou) to Batavia when it caught fire and sank. The merchant had ordered the goods on board for Dutch traders, who had limited access to China and its ports. * Porcelain for the European Market The Ca Mau Cargo consisted of numerous types of porcelain, chinaware and blue and white wares, all designed for the European market. Blue and white ceramics recovered from the cargo appear decorated with the so-called ‘Scheveningen landscape’, also known as ‘Deshima décor’. This motif usually depicted a traditional Dutch fishing village, executed in Chinese style. Chinese wares with Western motives were extremely popular and made to order and were known as ‘China de commande’.
