A Dutch decorated 'VOC' bowl
18th Century
The interior enamelled with a large roundel depicting several merchants standing on a quay inspecting their merchandise near two sailing vessels moored in the harbour, in the background a view of Dutch canal houses and a church, two gables adorned with the 'VOC' monogram and the letter 'D', referring to the city of Delft, the exterior with two large panels of Chinoiserie figures in a garden setting, reserved on a cell-pattern ground enriched with vignettes of flowers and butterflies
20.3 cm. diam.

专家说明

The letter 'D' in combination with the monogram of the VOC (Verenigde Oost Indische Compagnie) must represent the so-called 'Chamber' of Delft, as it ran the Dutch East Indie Company along with the 'Chambers' of Amsterdam, Middelburg, Rotterdam, Hoorn and Enkhuizen.
It is feasible that this bowl was decorated in one of the many Delft potteries that were specialised in painting on Chinese porcelain. In the 18th Century, the most famous workshop in over-decorating Chinese and later Meissen porcelain, was that of Gerrit van der Kaade in Delft. There are no recorded examples of the decoration on the above lot which makes it possible that is was commissioned as a single order for the 'Chamber' of Delft or perhaps for one of its members.
