British Museum: Masterpieces of Wedgwood, London: British Museum Press, 1995, illustrated on p.35, figure 26This piece forms part of the V&A Collection and was modelled by John Flaxman Sen. (1726 - 1795) in 1776 and manufactured by Josiah Wedgwood and Sons in circa 1840. John Flaxman Sen. was one of a number of plaster makers in London who supplied Bentley and Wedgwood with models and casts, usually but not always copies from classical, French or Italian sources. “The plasters are preserved at the Wedgwood Museum and may be based on a French source by Claude Michel, called Clodion (1738-1814), a sculptor best known for his terracotta figures and bas reliefs. The basalt vases are known as the ‘wine and water ewers’ or the ewers ‘Sacred to Bacchus’ and ‘Sacred to Neptune’ (Fig. 26), the satyr symbolising wine, and the triton riding on a dolphin representing water. They are amongst the most elaborately modelled pieces ever produced by the Wedgwood factory. Both bear the Wedgwood & Bentley mark which occurs in an usual form on the water ewer (Fig. 27). The shape was popular during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries in various materials including silver and even malachite. The Wedgwood vases were made in jasper ware in the late eighteenth century, and in majolica (lead-glazed earthenware) and bone china in the nineteenth century.” Dawson, A.
