Two delftware Biblical tiles mid 18th century

Two delftware Biblical tiles mid 18th century, variously painted in manganese, one with Jesus and two followers on the Walk to Emmaus, the other with Christ carrying the cross, together with a Dutch tile of an archer on horseback, the Biblical tiles in slender wood frames, 13.8cm max. (3)

Both Biblical tiles derive from Dutch designs. Cf. Anthony Ray, English Delftware Tiles, p.129, no.91 for the latter, and the V&A, Accession No. C.602:4-1923 for the Dutch version of the former.
