Exceptional Set of 20 Blue and White Dutch Delft Tiles with Figures

About the Item

An exceptional set of 20 blue and white Dutch Delft tiles with figures from daily life. Made in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. Circa 1620 - 1640. This set of tiles is of very fine quality and has a bright glaze, characteristic for the Amsterdam tile production of the 17th century. Also, the painting is of exceptional quality. The tiles are painted with figures from daily life, including two horse riders. This exceptional set is an highlight of the Amsterdam tile production and can be attributed to Jan Christiaensz van den Abeele. If we look at the decorations on the tiles we see some very unusual figures, such as an executioner, Roman soldier, nobleman, monks, riders, finely dressed soldiers. A man, probably with silver trowel, laying the first stone, paddler and the absolute highlight: the couple! Please note: All tiles are loose and can be arranged, mounted, or framed at the buyer's own preference.
