Figure 7 Tile, Holland, ca. 1625–1650. Delftware; orange clay with iron inclusions. 5.27" x 5.27" x .43". Represented here is an aged Poseidon looking somewhat distraught. He is seated on an orb (possibly a pearl) and holding a sail while riding on a seashell pulled by a reined otter. The subject is outlined in manganese and filled in with two tones of pale blue. The sea and its spray are similarly treated. At each of the spider corners is an inset pinhole.
