"Tafellaken met motief van rozen" is a 18th century white linen tablecloth with a delicate pattern of roses, likely created by an anonymous artisan during the mid-18th century. The large size of the tablecloth, measuring 165 cm in height and 300 cm in width, suggests its intended use in a grand household, serving as a testament to the era’s penchant for elaborate table settings and decorative textiles. The subtle floral motif adds a touch of elegance to the plain white fabric, reflecting the aesthetic sensibilities of the time.
