EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning Batavian ware cup and saucer, recovered from the sunken ship Geldermalsen. Created by the Dutch School in the 18th century, this porcelain masterpiece is now part of a private collection. The delicate white ceramic is adorned with a single bamboo shoot motif before a lattice-work fence on a terrace, reflecting an orientalist design. The cargo of the Geldermalsen was discovered in 1986 by Michael Hatcher in the South China Sea. This treasure trove included various imported items such as ceramics and chests, highlighting the extensive trade network of the Dutch East India Company during that time. The intricate blue and white painted details on this cup and saucer speak to its exceptional craftsmanship. Its balanced composition evokes elegance and sophistication, making it a true work of art. The Batavian ware reflects both Chinese influence and Netherlandish aesthetics, showcasing cultural exchange between these two regions. This print captures not only the beauty but also the historical significance behind this exquisite piece. It serves as a reminder of maritime history and exploration during the 18th century. With its ornate decoration and delicate features, this Batavian ware cup and saucer continue to captivate viewers with their timeless charm.
