About the Item
A rare Dutch Majolica plate with a decoration of a tulip.
Northern Netherlands, probably made in the city of Rotterdam.
Made 1620 - 1640
Dutch majolica is one of the more rare ceramics known, especially in a condition where it is almost complete. Dutch Majolica is extremely rare to find in complete condition, most of the time parts are missing. That is because almost all pieces are from excavations. We think that an estimated only 200 pieces have been handed down over the centuries, of which most are in museum collections or foundations. This plate is 100% complete!
Besides that Dutch majolica is rare, it's also historical special: it's a new chapter in people's lives and a mixture of cultures. Majolica has something magical and a special attraction that makes you marvel. That’s how it’s for me, but so it should have been for the people in the first half of the 16th century when this luxury product was introduced for the first time. This product was exotic, innovative, and decorated in bright shining colors on a tin-glazed ground, in contradiction with the brown, yellow, and green lead-glazed ceramics which were common. Dutch majolica has been influenced by a lot of cultures. The main influences were the Spanish-Islamic culture and the Italian Renaissance. Later, it also has been influenced by the imports of Chinese porcelain.
This example still shows influences from the Italian Renaissance. The decoration of the border is copied from Italian ones. But the main decoration is contemporary. In this time period (1620-1640) we see scenes from daily life. Decorations of people, landscapes, fruits, animals, birds, and flowers. With a decoration of a flower, the tulip can be mentioned separately. The tulip has been frequently used as decoration since the introduction of this flower in the last quarter of the 16th century, as a symbol of status.
A wonderful example of decorative art from the late Dutch Renaissance.
