A Dutch Delft De Porceleyne Fles Honoring the women tile designed by Hendricus Johannes (Henk) Tieman (1921-2001). The tile shows a woman at a small stove cooking and cleaning clothes. On the back wall there is a small oil lamp producing some light. The tile honours women across the Netherlands who made do with minimal resources and no power during the winter of 1945-1946. The winter was particularly harsh and very little resources were afforded by the civilian population of The Netherlands due to the ongoing Second World War. Short Biography: Hendricus Johannes (Henk) Tieman was born in 1921 in The Hague. He worked for the Porceleyne Fles ceramic factory from 1938 to 1982 as a tile designer of mostly monumental ceramics for buildings but also worked in mosaic and glass painting. He passed away in 2001 in Rotterdam.
