Vaas, waarvan de oren bestaan uit met elkaar verstrengelde slangen c. 1778 - 1782

This white porcelain vase, created by Loosdrecht between 1778 and 1782, is a stunning example of Neoclassical design. The vase features a pair of intertwined serpents serving as handles, a motif popularized during the Renaissance period. The central decorative element is a Medusa-like mask, a powerful symbol of strength and defense. The vase's delicate form and intricate detailing are characteristic of the Neoclassical style, which emphasized simplicity, order, and harmony, drawing inspiration from classical Greek and Roman art. This piece is currently part of the Rijksmuseum collection in Amsterdam.
