A very rare creamware 'Welshman' Toby jug, circa 1790The portly gentleman seated with a goat beneath his legs, his head turned to one side, holding a foaming jug with both hands, wearing a mottled green coat, light blue waistcoat and brown breeches, shoes and hat, 26.3cm highFootnotes:ProvenanceJames and Timmey Challenger Collection, ChicagoWhile the idea of a Welshman mounted on a goat may just be an attempt at bawdy humour, in his catalogue in 1922, Capt. Price first suggested that this curious jug was meant to represent Sir Watkin William Wynn, celebrated Master of the Cycle Club and one of the most notorious Welshmen of his day. Sadly, there is no evidence to support this claim.Welsh regiments have had a goat as their mascot since the 18th century. The tradition goes back to the American War of Independence in 1775 when a wild goat wandered onto the battlefield at Bunker Hill and ended up leading the Welsh regimental Colours off the battlefield. A decade or so later the goat mascot supports this 'Welsh Country Gentleman', to give this jug its alternative name.Only two other creamware examples are recorded, one in the Bute Collection, Christie's 8 July 1996, lot 53, and the other exhibited by Jonathan Horne in 2003. Four pearlware examples are known. One was in the Bute Collection, lot 52 and one in the Price Collection, Astbury, Whieldon and Ralph Wood Figures and Toby Jugs (1922), pl.XLVI, fig.34. An example in the Christopher Bibby Collection was sold by Christie's 6 October 1970, lot 9 and another from the Sir Harold Mackintosh Collection was sold by Bonhams on 5 June 2019, lot 113. Most early authors have stated that this is not a product of the Wood family and it is quite different to the Midshipman family by Jacob Marsh. Among other possible creamware and pearlware makers it is worth considering the Cambrian Pottery in Swansea. Some underglaze blue sprigs noted on Swansea pearlware have similarities to those used on the Welshman jugs.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ** VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
