Did you know that there were also a number of talented women artists in the Dutch Golden Age that should be recognized as well?
Today, the artist as a visionary with ideas and aesthetics of her own is taken for granted. But it emerged during this vibrant period in the Netherlands, pioneered by Rembrandt van Rijn, alongside many of other features of the modern art market.
We take you inside the prestigious Royal Delft factory, where centuries-old craftsmanship and artistic excellence come together. Witness the meticulous attention to detail as skilled artisans transform raw materials into exquisite Delft Blue masterpieces.
A lot of Delft pottery has a white background with hand-painted blue designs. One of the reasons for this lies in the history of Delft pottery.
The most celebrated period in the history of the Netherlands, associated with great artists such as Rembrandt van Rijn, Johannes Vermeer, and Frans Hals.
