Overview
This is a beautiful and rare set of 9 tiles dating from around 1640. The tiles are of one firing and were painted by the same painter, leading to a very consistent selection of tiles in style and appearance. The tiles are decorate with so called 'volute' corner motifs and are all in a good condition without restorations. They depict figures during 'daily life' activities in the 17th century. A man can be seen smoking a pipe, a child is playing with a hoop, other figures are cheering or raising a drink. The tiles provide us with a beautiful glimpse into the past.
