Deksel, veelkleurig beschilderd met figuren in een rivierlandschap c. 1774 - 1778

This 18th-century Dutch porcelain tureen and lid, crafted by the Loosdrecht workshop, is a testament to the artistry of the period. The piece features a charming landscape scene painted in a vibrant purple hue. The lid, adorned with a delicate handle, portrays two figures traversing a wooded path, while the tureen itself depicts a similar scene with additional figures. This exquisite piece is a fine example of Dutch decorative arts, showcasing the skill and creativity of the Loosdrecht workshop. The delicate landscape and figures are a testament to the Rococo style, popular at the time. This tureen, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into the refined tastes and artistic sensibilities of the Dutch elite during the late 18th century.
