De Porceleyne Fles

An exceptional antique wall plate from the longstanding Dutch manufactory De Porceleyne Fles in Delft, made in 1897. The striking winter landscape, painted entirely by hand in cobalt blue, depicts an idyllic Dutch scene with majestic windmills, a wintry waterway, small boats, and picturesque houses. A delicate bridge and scattered figures lend the scene a special sense of vitality and depth. According to the inscription “naar J. H. Wijsmuller,” the composition is based on a work by Dutch landscape painter Jan Hillebrand Wijsmuller (1855–1925), who is particularly known for his atmospheric landscapes, windmills, and winter scenes. Particularly fascinating is the finely graduated cobalt-blue painting, which vividly captures the wintry atmosphere, the soft light in the sky, and the reflections on the water. The De Porceleyne Fles factory mark on the reverse, together with the year letter S, confirms the date of 1897 and thus its creation in the late 19th century. The patina that has developed over more than 125 years gives it a special historical appeal. The fine crazing in the glaze is highlighted in places by warm, brownish inclusions, revealing the natural aging of the surface. This distinctive patination is consistent with the piece’s great age and enhances its authentic historical character, although it does not, on its own, constitute proof of age. An impressive collector’s piece from the heyday of Delft art pottery, combining the longstanding craftsmanship of De Porceleyne Fles with the atmospheric Dutch landscape painting of the 19th century. The item will be wrapped in cushioning film, surrounded by biodegradable Styrofoam, and shipped in a double-walled cardboard box via DHL.
