Kop, beschilderd met een bloemboeket en twee bloemtakken c. 1778 - 1782

This porcelain cup, painted with a delicate bouquet of flowers, is a fine example of Dutch decorative arts from the late 18th century. Created by an artist known only as Loosdrecht, the cup is a testament to the skill and artistry of the period. The intricate floral design, meticulously painted in vibrant hues, speaks to the prevailing taste for elegance and beauty during this era. The cup, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a small but significant artifact that offers a glimpse into the lives and aesthetic preferences of the Dutch elite in the late 18th century.
