About this work
Wine cup from VOC ship 'Witte Leeuw'. Porcelain wine cup painted in underglaze blue with a frieze of stylized leaves below a frieze of spirals. Rim shards show cracks. The sherd is glassy white. The glaze is blue-tinted, showing pinholes and small baking cracks on the inside. The base is glazed; the footring is straight, faceted, and stands inward. No oven sand found. No relief; the lip is upturned.
