Two plaques with a landscape
by FRYTOM, Frederik van, Blue-painted faience, 35 x 34 cm (each)
Until 1680 most Delft faience was painted with Chinese representation: Delft-blue earthenware originated as an imitation of Chinese porcelain. Later on, more and more earthenware acquired a Dutch appearance, such as these two plaques with landscape depictions by Frederik van Frytom.
