Decor: Tiny Year: 1919. High:
31.5cm. Wide: 14.5cm Painted
by: IJ = Franciscus IJsselstein.
A good example of the earthy colors, characteristic for the matte Gouda
designs. The painters signature is just a single Y (Written as
IJ as the Dutch people used to do). At a later date a female
also with the IJsselstein surname started to paint for the PZH.
Since the IJ signature was already taken, she included the initial of her
first name (Clasina) as part of the signature. So her signature became CY.
