About this work
These two lidded vases belong to a set of five. They were owned by King William I of the Netherlands and were transferred in 1816 to the Royal Cabinet of Rarities, which in the 19th century was a repository for non-Western objects. In 1883 the vases entered the Royal Museum of Art and History, the precursor of the Rijksmuseum.
