This clear glass bottle, dated c. 1675-1685, is an example of Dutch glassmaking during the 17th century. The bottle's round body and slender neck are typical of the period, and it is adorned with intricate etched designs, including a swirling pattern and the word "vin" (wine) in French. The bottle is now part of the collection at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. The artwork is a testament to the craftsmanship and artistry of Dutch glassblowers during a time when glassmaking was a significant industry.
Comments
The inscription, which translates as ‘When wine enters, reason departs’, warns of the consequences of over indulgence. Van Heemskerk kept this bottle in his own possession, together with a large portion of his work. His glass collection remained in the family well into the 18th century and was auctioned in Leiden in 1771.
