Getting started with the collection:
Guanyin
anoniem, c. 1720 - c. 1750
Through the VOC's worldwide trading activities blanc de Chine found its way to Europe. Factories in Delft and in the German city of Meissen imitated the white porcelain, as demonstrated by this figurine. The European imitator may have used as his model the Guanyin by the famous Chinese potter He Chaozong.
