Description / Expertise:

This charming lantern decorated with typical Dutch estuary scenes is a rare survival. Although they must have been made in large quantities as evidenced in many Dutch Old Masters their medium makes them very vulnerable. The painting on this lantern is exceptionally fine and typical of the period. The use of polychrome lifts the decoration. This lantern is very atmospheric conjuring up images of cosy interiors.

Retaining the original iron hanging ring. The pierced four-gabled roof is painted in blue with two repeats of estuary scenes of skiffs sailing past fortified towns. The door painted with a similar estuary scene with a large skiff in mid-view. Retaining the original iron handle and hinges.
