-
1880? Brown Westhead Moore and Co transferware pedestal dish illustrating “The Two Doves.” 13” in diameter, 7” high. Unknown source.
Beautiful work well preserved. The handling of the image is consistent with the other excellent things we have from BWM. Cream color with blue transferware. One handle has been repaired. Grape vines surround the central scene. One dove feels the need to travel while the other waits at home. Travel goes very poorly, and the traveling dove is delighted to make it home wounded and battered. The scene is sometimes portrayed as a romantic scene of human lovers reunited. - Date
