Description
A Plymouth white-glazed figure group, c.1770, modelled with two putti and a goat raised on a tall scrolled base before flowering bocage, some chipping, 20.5cm.
The original source for the model is a bronze group by Jacques Sarazzin of c.1640 in the Louvre. The same group was produced at both Longton Hall and Vauxhall and it is possible that the Plymouth example copied these rather than the original bronze.
