The Houses of Worship in Dutch New York Mug features details from The New York Historical's Plan of the City map that illustrate religious diversity in Dutch New York. Created on the occasion of the exhibition Old Masters, New Amsterdam, this mug adapts the houses of worship illustrations into blue and white, a nod to the iconic Delft Blue, a symbol of Dutch heritage.
