Figura - The Crimean War - Barro
A Staffordshire style large group from The Crimean War
Russo-phobia in the mid nineteenth century made figures associated with the Crimean War popular subjects. The three figures represent Turkey, England and France; they are respectively Sultan Abdul-Mejid, Queen Victoria and Napoleon III. The decoration on the figures is characteristic of the mid 19th Century period. Few colours were used and blue was the predominant colour.
Portraying a great event in contemporary public life, these figures appealed to the less wealthy populace and reflect the imagination of the potters of the time.
This is a good example. No cracks or breakage.
Circa 1854.
