<p>[QUOTE=&quot;15Stiftgasse, post: 3862625, member: 12382&quot;]I&#039;ve done a quick search on &#039;Antique French Majolica Tile&#039; . I could find only one entry which showed a polychrome figure. A tile is being sold via Ebay (please see scan). However, in the description field, the seller states that she bought the tile in France, and that although the colours (in her opinion) were more typical of Italian origin, she stated that the tile could be from France , Belgium or Italy. Hmmmmm.&nbsp;&nbsp; However, I must admit that the painting style is quite similar to one of my tiles - eg. the shading on the legs, for instance.</p><p>I&#039;m still of the opinion that my other tile is Dutch, based on similar 17th / 18th century designs. I think that it may perhaps be depicting Noah (with the dove bringing the twig ), although the character appears to be on dry land, rather than on an ark !! Perhaps one of the better educated contributors might know.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]319527[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
