Water lily
An Art Nouveau style tile showing a water lily, from the Netherlands. I'm not certain whether this is part of the collection, but I do know that the Dutch Tile Museum has an extensive collection of over 11,000 tiles. You can see the collection online but I have to say it's not all that well displayed and you have to wade through page after page, like a catalogue. There are some beauties there though.

I used your link to go to the Dutch site. I saw the beautiful peacock. I need you to translate though.
ReplyDeleteAs far as Dutch is concerned, you're more or less on your own. If it sounds or looks a bit like German I may be able to help, but not a lot. :)
