18th century Dutch Delft wall plaque or wall painting

Offered by: Mazereeuw Antiquair

Description
Origin: Delft, the Netherlands
Date: 1740

In the 18th century, it was popular to decorate your walls with paintings, with images from far away, to tell stories and marvel over these places. Due to the artistry and craftsmanship of the Delft potters, it also became a fashion to hang a ceramic painting on your wall. These fine blue and white paintings are known as plaques.
The plaque has a fine chinoiserie decoration in cobalt blue, of a Chinese garden with figures and birds, with rocks on the left and a palace complex on the right.

The plaque is in wonderful condition with the normal signs of use of almost 300 years of admiration.
