Guided tour of the exhibition “Delft Blue”

Delft Blue is an exhibition that presents the renowned ceramics of Delft, which developed into a significant artistic phenomenon in the 17th and 18th centuries, not only in the Netherlands, but across Europe. The success of Delft’s masters was rooted in their emulation of the highly coveted yet costly Chinese and Japanese porcelain, both in form and decorative motifs, along with vivid depictions of local life. These ceramics feature Oriental scenes, delicate and picturesque Dutch landscapes with churches and windmills, and moralising biblical imagery and mythological figures. One of the highlights of the collection is a rare example of work by Delft’s most celebrated master, Frederik van Frijtom.

All works originate from a unique private collection in Estonia, assembled with great dedication and expertise. The exhibition Delft Blue offers a rare opportunity to explore this remarkable collection.

Participation is free of charge with an annual pass to the Art Museum of Estonia.
