Tile - Leaping Hare in a Medallion - Seventeenth century

Majolica Tile – Leaping Hare in a Medallion – 17th Century Square tile in polychrome tin-glazed earthenware (majolica) with a hand-painted dynamic animal scene, depicting a hare (or rabbit) jumping to the right, head turned back. The animal is drawn with manganese outline and filled with antimony yellow, set against a stylized landscape of blue flowers and tufts of blue grass. The scene is framed by a double circular yellow border. The corner blocks feature cobalt blue border motifs (Corner motifs).
