Övrig information
Rolwagens are known as part of the VOC export assortment and enjoyed great popularity in Europe as decorative objects. The Dutch word rolwagen (literally ‘rolling wagon’) may have been derived from an element in a scene which frequently occurs on these vases, namely a figure seated in a cart with two big wheels, the rolwagen.
