EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 18th century platter, hailing from the renowned Dutch city of Delft, is a stunning example of the intricate craftsmanship and artistic innovation that characterized the Dutch Delftware tradition. The platter is adorned with a vibrant floral pattern, interspersed with delicate portraits of women. Each portrait is rendered with remarkable detail and expressiveness, their gazes fixed with an air of serene contemplation. The floral motifs, in turn, are rendered with lush, lifelike realism, their petals and leaves delicately rendered in shades of blue and white. This work of art is a hand-finished chromolithograph, a printing technique that emerged in the 19th century as a means of reproducing the intricacies of porcelain and pottery designs with remarkable accuracy. The image is taken from "Histoire Generale de la Faience Ancienne, Francaise et Etrangere," a comprehensive work on ancient French and foreign glazed pottery, published in Paris in 1874 by Ris Paquot. The meticulous attention to detail and the high-quality printing process used in the creation of this chromolithograph serve to preserve the beauty and intricacy of the original Delftware platter for future generations to appreciate. The Delftware tradition, which emerged in the Netherlands in the 16th century, was known for its distinctive blue and white designs, inspired by Chinese porcelain. The city of Delft became a center of production for this type of pottery, with numerous workshops producing intricately decorated pieces for both local and international markets. The artisans of Delft were renowned for their skill in creating intricate designs, often featuring landscapes, figures, and floral motifs. This platter is a testament to the enduring appeal and artistic excellence of the Delftware tradition, and a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of the Netherlands during the 18th century.
