17th Century Portuguese Tile Panel. Restored 56cm x 56cm 14cm x 14cm tiles
with certificate of authenticity and export issued … more 17th Century Portuguese Tile Panel. Restored 56cm x 56cm 14cm x 14cm tiles
with certificate of authenticity and export issued by the Directorate General of Portuguese Cultural Heritage, the only official department for issuing certificates for works of art. 17th Century. Shortly afterwards, these plain white tiles were replaced by polychrome tiles (enxaquetado rico) often giving a complex framework such as in the Igreja de Santa Maria de Marvila in Santarém, Portugal with one of the most outstanding tile-based interior decorations in Portugal. When the diagonal tiles were replaced by a repetitive pattern of horizontal polychrome tiles, one could obtain a new design with different motifs, interlacing Mannerist drawings with representations of roses and camellias (sometimes roses and garlands). An inset votive usually depicts a scene from the life of Christ or a saint. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
issues arising from misattribution less
