Portret van Wilhelmina Frederica Louisa van Pruissen c. 1800 - 1825

This Delftware plate, created by an anonymous artist sometime between 1800 and 1825, is a striking example of Dutch decorative arts. The plate depicts a portrait of Wilhelmina Frederica Louisa van Pruissen, likely a prominent figure of the time. The artist employs a simple yet elegant style, using a palette of browns, yellows, and whites to capture the subject's likeness with delicate details. Surrounding the portrait is a decorative border of stylized leaves and tulips, characteristic of Delftware designs. This plate, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies the enduring legacy of Dutch ceramic artistry.
