PITCHER WITH EVE.

Lissabon.
Date: Mid-17th century.
Technique: Faience with white glaze and blue decor. Tin mounting.
Description: On the front a large curved cartouche with Eve between flowering branches. The back of the
jug with dense leaf and flower decor.
Measurement: Height 27,5cm.

Provenance:
Private collection Hamburg.

Literature:
Helke, Gun-Dagmar: Fayencen - Glanzstücke der Sammlung des Museums für Kunst und Gewerbe Hamburg, Hamburg 2006, p.28 and p.136.

This jug as well as lot 79 belong to a group of pieces, that were long identified as Hamburg faience, created by immigrant Portuguese potters.
According to today's research, however, they are not early testimonies of Hamburg pottery, but original Portuguese pieces, which were imported from Lisbon for the Hamburg market.
In the exhibition 'Lisbon - Hamburg. Faience Imports for the North', the Hamburg Kunst und Gewerbe museum's holdings were reprocessed and classified from this point of view by Dr. Ulrich Bauche and Dr. Johanna Lessmann in 1996.
