This 18th-century Dutch tin-glazed earthenware plate, or "Bord," by Piccardt features a depiction of a baptism scene. The scene is framed by a decorative border of stylized leaves and flowers in shades of green, blue, and red. The central image shows a priest baptizing an infant, surrounded by other figures. The inscription "D.H.DOOP" at the bottom translates to "The Holy Baptism," suggesting the plate may have been created for a religious context or as a commemorative piece for a baptism.
