This silver dish, "Plooischotel, achtlobbig. In het midden in reliëf een bacchanaal met vier kinderen in een landschap.", was created in 1677 by Dutch silversmith Nicolaas Mensma. The dish features a central roundel depicting four cherubs playing in a landscape, surrounded by a decorative border of floral and foliate motifs. The intricate repoussé technique used to create the relief imagery is characteristic of Mensma's work. This piece exemplifies the craftsmanship and artistic sensibilities of 17th-century Dutch silverwork.
