Deksel van suikerpot, beschilderd met een rivierlandschap met boerderijen en figuren before 1814

This lid of a sugar pot, painted with a river landscape with farms and figures, is an example of Dutch Delftware, a type of tin-glazed earthenware made in the Netherlands. The lid, produced by Koninklijke Porseleinfabriek Dommer & Co., features a detailed scene of a river with a farm and figures in the foreground. It was produced before 1814. The piece, now in the Rijksmuseum collection, is a testament to the enduring popularity of Delftware throughout the 18th and 19th centuries. The lid's diminutive size, with a diameter of 10 cm, highlights the fine detail and craftsmanship of this ceramic tradition.
