18th century Tile Tableau "Sommelsdijk"
This tile tableau is a reproduction of an 18th century Delft Blue tableau consisting of 96 ceramic tiles.
The original was made in 1725 and used to hang in an orphanage in Sommelsdijk. The maker of this beautiful Delft Blue design is unknown. This tile tableau is part of the Rijksmuseum ceramic collection since 1897.
We have reproduced the original tableau on decorative tiles. They are mounted on MDF-board, which has been painted with several coats of "Rijksmuseum wit-grijs" paint. The tableau has a custom-made French cleat hanging system on the back for quick and easy hanging in your home or office. The result looks stunning.
Tableau size: 80 x 120 cm
Size of individual tiles: 10 x 10 cm
Amount of tiles: 96
We also deliver this tile mural in loose tiles so you can mount them directly onto the wall. Contact us for more information.
