An English porcelain plate early 19th century
An English porcelain plate early 19th century, the well painted with Edwin and Angelina, the sage leading the disguised Angelina by the hand through woodland, within a wide gilt band to the cavetto, the rim with a continuous floral design, titled in red to the underside 'Edwin and Angelena [sic]', 20.7cm.
The decoration appears to have been adapted from Walter Stephens Lethbridge's painting after the ballad by Oliver Goldsmith, written for the Countess of Northumberland.
