Pair of stoneware dishes with curved edges from Thun in Switzerland with hand painted views in the center and enamelled edges with edelweiss decorations
Good general condition
Diameter 26 cm
Slight wear in the center
Slightly hollow shape to give depth to the decoration
The central views represent :
- The chapel of William Tell in Fluelen on the lake of the 4 cantons
This chapel shelters 4 frescos of the Basle painter Ernst Stuckelberg describing 4 events of the founding myths of Switzerland, namely, the oath of the Grutli, the shooting with the crossbow, the jump of Tell and the death of Gessler.
The pianist and composer Franz Liszt dedicated the first piece of his "Years of Pilgrimage" to it.
- The Staubbach Falls
This waterfall is located just to the west above Lauterbrunnen in the Bernese highlands. It falls 297 meters from a suspended plateau that ends in cliffs overlooking the Weisse Lutschine.
Goethe drew his inspiration for his work "Song of the Spirits on the Waters" from this impressive waterfall.
