These special containers are water dispensers for birds. When filled with water through the opening at the lower front and turned upright, the air pressure keeps the water leveled for a constant supply. Single bird feeders are seldom found in Dutch Delftware, but a pair such as this is possibly unique. The reservoirs are painted with continuous hunting scenes including a deer chase, duck-shooting and trapping by luring the birds into netted catching pipes (duck decoys, eendenkooi). This latter activity is rarely illustrated in the arts, and the decoration on these dispensers is currently its only known depiction on Dutch Delftware. (Engels) | |||
