Catalogue information
Leidsche Bread Factory For the 40th anniversary of the Leidsche Broodfabriek, which was founded in 1866, and also the 40th anniversary of director G.J. the Casparis. The tableau shows the factory building, as it was near the Maredijk. On September 19, 1906, De Porceleyne Fles sent a photographer to Leiden to take pictures of the building. The trees on this tableau have been 'moved' to make the text on the building stand out better. The tableau is signed in the lower left with the monogram LS, by Leon Senf (1860-1940), head of the painting department of the Porceleyne Fles. The year mark at the bottom right 'AA' is not entirely correct, because that is 1905. Tableau of 20 ceramic tiles, depicting the Leidsche Broodfabriek, made by De Porceleyne Fles in Delft, painted by Leon Senf, in 1906 Source: [08037], Tile Collection, Dutch Tile Museum
