Melkkan, beschilderd met een landschap met vee c. 1809 - 1814

This cream jug, made in the early 19th century by the Koninklijke Porseleinfabriek Dommer & Co., is an example of Dutch porcelain. It is decorated with a pastoral scene of a cow and a shepherd in a landscape. This piece of tableware, with its delicate hand-painted design and gold trim, would have been used for serving cream or milk during the tea ceremony. The intricate detail of the design and high-quality porcelain production highlight the artistic skill of the Dutch porcelain industry during this period. This particular example is currently held in the Rijksmuseum collection.
