Figure 25 Tile, Holland, ca. 1700–1740. Delftware. 5.04" x 5.04" x .31". A winged but armless siren is wearing an elaborate cap and, below her waist, something that could be a very short skirt or four bovine udders. The figure is flanked by five sailboats, and the sea is a modified chevron treatment, presumably portraying a parting of the waves. The palette is a pale, somewhat diffuse blue. The edges are slightly beveled, and there are oxhead corners with two near-to-edge pinholes.
