Polychrome Dutch Delft Dish Hand Painted with Country Scene Circa 1780

About the Item

This is an 18th-century Dutch Delft pancake plate hand painted circa 1780. The artist used the polychrome colors moss green, red, blue, and manganese brown to create a lovely painting of a quaint country cottage surrounded by a garden. The cottage is outlined in red and painted with two splashes of yellow. The garden is painted in a traditional Dutch Delft style, featuring a fence and several trees. The sky above has splashes of light blue, and broad lines of manganese brown create the ground around the cottage and along the beach. The border of the dish features four cartouches with Artemisia leaves painted in deep blue. Each of these colors is a traditional color of polychrome Dutch Delft. Dimensions: 8.75" diameter Condition: Excellent Price: $385 Background of Polychrome Colored Dutch Delft: In the 15th century, in The towns of Faenza and Urbino, Italian potters created ceramics with an opaque white, tin-based glaze on fired clay, which served as a ground for polychrome enamel painting. This Italian pottery, locally called Maiolica or Faience, was richly decorated with polychrome colors. These wares were transported from Italy to the Netherlands. In the 16th century, Italian potters established factories in the Netherlands, making the first polychrome Dutch Delft.
