Description
A large Derby punch bowl with rare mark, painted to the interior probably by George Robertson with a view of the Isle of Wight after John 'Warwick' Smith, within a continuous gilt foliate border, the bowl's exterior with moulded ribs, a rare puce crowned DK monogram mark, 28.5cm dia.
Cf. Victoria & Albert Museum, Accession no. C.244-1922 for a mug with the same mark, believed to relate to the Duesbury and Kean partnership. The painting derives from Samuel Middiman's print of 'Warwick' Smith's painting, probably of Shanklin Chine.
