Polychrome Lobed Dish with Horseman Delft, 1690-1700

About the Item

Polychrome lobed dish with horseman. Delft, 1690-1700. Dimensions: diameter 33,8 cm / 13 in. The lobed dish is composed of twenty-seven double lobes and is painted in polychrome with a central motif of a horseman. The border is decorated with a continuous frieze of simplified flowers and tulips. The horseman is standing on a green ground between two trees. This type of decoration harks back to maiolica plates and tiles from the first half of the seventeenth century. The colour scheme of blue, yellow and green is frequently found on lobed dishes from the sixteen-nineties, especially with simplified images of King William III and his wife Queen Mary Stuart. After the Glorious Revolution in 1688 they acceded to the English throne in 1689. Most of the lobed dishes with this decoration must have been made around 1690. In addition, flowers and birds, animals, heraldic arms and landscapes were also painted on lobed dishes with this colour scheme. Condition: Very good considering age. Chips to rim, a hairline crack in the border at one o’clock.

  • Polychrome Chinoiserie Lobed Dish Delft, 1680-1690
    By Dutch Originals
    Located in ROSSUM, GE
    Polychrome chinoiserie lobed dish. Delft, 1680-1690 The lobed dish is composed of nine wide lobes around a nine-fold centre and is painted with a chinoiserie decor in purple, yellow and green. Two Chinese figures in an eastern landscape are depicted in the centre, one of them carries a banner. The landscape is framed within lines and a white band. The border is decorated with a continuous landscape with two reclining and two standing Chinese figures. A lobed dish of the same shape and design in purple, blue and green is in the collection of the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. The Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, Massachusetts holds a variant in blue and yellow. In the same museum are three lobed dishes, each with twenty-seven double lobes with chinoiserie landscapes in the same colour scheme of purple, yellow and green. In the second half of the seventeenth century many lobed dishes were painted with Chinese motifs, mostly landscapes with Chinese figures. The vast majority are in blue. Two- or multi-coloured chinoiserie decorations were very fashionable during a short period of time, predominantly in the 1680s. In addition to lobed dishes, they also appear on wine jugs, beer mugs, butter pots, covered spiced-wine bowls and dishes. Some of this Delftware is still wrongly attributed to a factory in the German town of Frankfurt, and sometimes it is even considered to be English. An excavated chinoiserie butter pot in purple, green and yellow, found in a cesspit in the grounds of the Porcelain Bottle factory, proves otherwise. A beer mug with the portrait of the Dutch prince Willem III...
