Kop, beschilderd met pluimvee in een landschap c. 1782 - 1784

This small porcelain cup, known as a "kop," was crafted by an anonymous artist in Loosdrecht, the Netherlands, around 1782-1784. The cup, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, features a delicate depiction of a bird nestled within a landscape, painted in vibrant colors. This piece exemplifies the popular 18th-century Dutch style of decorative arts, characterized by the use of fine porcelain and intricate hand-painted details, showcasing the skilled craftsmanship of the period. The gold accents around the rim add a touch of elegance to the overall design, making this a true collector's item.
