Description

A Pratt ware Hearty Good Fellow Toby jug c.1810, modelled in typical animated pose, his jug of ale overflowing as he turns, clutching his clay pipe in his left hand, his coat patterned in ochre and blue over a horizontally striped waistcoat, with the unusual addition of a small dog seated between his feet, the handle issuing from the gnarled stump behind him, some damages and repairs, 29cm.

Provenance: the Colin Russell Collection. Paper label for the Zeitlin Collection.
