This is one of the earlier landscape vases made by the "Plateelbakkerij
Zuid Holland". The softer colours used on this vase were only used for a
very short time, and are clearly different from the other landscape vases
you find on my site.
With its generous size it is also the biggest landscape vase that I have
seen so far, and because of that the vase has many views; A boat on the
front and back with different landscape in between, also seen from the top
a nicely painted wind-mill.
Clearly a lot of effort went into painting this vase. That was probably
also one of the reasons they did not produce many of these.
And if you wonder what the black line behind the boat is, well that is a
mooring-stick, pushed in the soft mud in the stream; the boat is then
anchored to it; and for even more detail, in the picture on the right even the float from the fishing rod can be seen in the water!
