Antique 1809 Oude Amstel Porcelain Scenic Cup & Saucer Scene Porselein Tasse #2

Description: For sale is an amazing cup and saucer matching the other one I own. I finally helped solve the riddle of who made them with the help of a Dutch collector. It was made by Oude Amstel around 1809 and painted by Nicolaas Wicart Utrecht (1748-1815). There are at least 600 drawings of villages and landscapes of him known. When Reverend de Mol founded (1774) his manufacture in Loosdrecht, he attracted Wicart as a porcelain painter, where he worked from 1777 to 1784. His drawings or components formed the basis of many variations on the Loosdrecht porcelain. The fame of Loosdrecht was such that when the manufacture was moved to Amsterdam they continued to use it. In the event of breakage or expansion of an existing service Amstel made new matching examples. For example see a tureen labelled " 't Dorp Benschop". The saucer is hand painted with a nice gold design matching the cup but what makes this set much more interesting than usual is a superb scene hand painted with lots of detail in the front of the cup. The scene is of a small village (well back then at least) called Berg Ambach . Both pieces are in fairly good condition with the saucer having a chip as shown which is an easy fix and the cup has an inside rim restored fix which could use some updating. The saucer is marked with a gold L and the cup has something I have not seen on Dutch porcelain - the name of the place underneath in Dutch - the name of the town in the scene - Dorp Berg-Ambacht as well as the same gold L. A rare piece of Dutch history on porcelain and a superb one at that! The cup is 2.5 inches tall and the same in diameter. The saucer is 1 inch tall and 5 inches in diameter.
