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

This small, porcelain saucer, painted with a bird perched on a fencepost, is part of a set of tableware produced in Loosdrecht, Netherlands, around 1782-1784. The intricate design and delicate hand-painted details demonstrate the artistry of Dutch porcelain production in the 18th century. The saucer, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcases the craftsmanship and popularity of decorative ceramics during that era. The delicate gold edging and naturalistic depiction of the bird and floral motifs contribute to the overall aesthetic appeal of the piece.
