Delftware. Cistern. Unknown Delft factory, Holland. The gadroons are decorated with Chinese-style flowers and symmetrical scrolls of two alternating designs. The convex area is painted with a continuous European landscape with buildings and sponged trees and bushes, amongst which are several men, one of them on a horse, and another smoking a pipe. To one side is a garden with a balustrade and a fountain with dolphins, round which stand four putti. Pale buff earthenware thrown, with applied moulded gadrooning, tin-glazed, and painted in blue, circa 1700. Baroque.
