Jan Menze van Diepen Stichting: A Selection from the Collection of Oriental Ceramics

Jorg, Christiaan J.A.

Jan Menze van Diepen was born in 1905 in Waterhuizen to a family of Gronigen shipbuilders. He was a versatile and passionate collector who brought together an extensive collection of paintings, prints and Oriental porcelain. 

Following his death in 1994, his unique collection was transferred to the J.M. van Diepen Foundation and is now housed in the Fraeylemaborg, an 18th century country estate in Slochteren, Groningen. This publication, the second in the series Selections from the J.M. van Diepen Collection, is dedicated to export porcelain from China and Japan. Van Diepen's rich collection of c. 2500 objects includes many interesting and rare pieces dating from the 15th to the 20th century, of which 145 are illustrated and described here.
