Delft, located in the province of Zuid-Holland in the Netherlands, is renowned for its exquisite pottery known as Delftware. The city has a rich history dating back to the 17th century, when it became a hub for ceramic production. One notable piece is a plate from 1727, created by Delftware artisans at De Metaale Pot. Its intricate design and vibrant colors showcase the craftsmanship that made Delft famous worldwide. Another stunning plate hails from around 1720 and was crafted by De Witte Ster. The delicate patterns and meticulous details exemplify the skill of these talented artists. Augusteyne Reygensburgh's plate from around 1700/25 showcases his unique style with its elegant motifs and refined composition. Moving beyond ceramics, Emanuel de Witte captures the beauty of Delft's Oude Kerk (Old Church) in two captivating paintings. One depicts its interior probably around 1650 while another showcases it during the late 1680s. These masterpieces provide glimpses into daily life within this historical place of worship. An intriguing painting titled "The Terrace" dates back to approximately 1660 but leaves us wondering about its mysterious creator. Cornelis de Man's depiction of Oude Kerk in 1660/70 offers an enchanting view of this iconic landmark against a backdrop of bustling city life. De Griekesche A stands out as one of Delft's prominent ceramic producers with their vase from c. 1690/1700 showcasing their exceptional artistry. Intriguingly, De Griekesche A also created a figure representing Buddhist Monk Budai Hoshang during the same period—an unexpected fusion between Eastern spirituality and Dutch craftsmanship. Their Tazza piece from c. 1678/85 exhibits their mastery over form and decoration while their Chocolate Cup Stand from 1701/22 showcases their ability to create functional yet visually stunning objects.
