A mid-18th century English Delft blue and white bell shaped mug celebrating 'The King of Prussia', his portrait bust opposite the handle about to be wreathed by a cherub flying above, battle trophies on either side of the ground beside him, 15cm (6 in) high Other Notes: Records of this depiction have been found on plates and bowls but not on mugs. The original of the portrait used for this mug may have been by the Prussian court painter Antoine Pesne (1683-1757) and bears similarities to one in the British Royal collection. Richard Houston engraved a print of Frederick the Great in about 1758, after the monarch's victories at Breslau and Neumark. It is probably the print which pottery painters copied.
George Morland (British, 1763-1804) The Bell Inn at Kilburn, London oil on canvas 112 x 138cm (44 x 54in) Provenance: John Knight, Lea Castle, Wolverley, Kidderminster, March 1826, and by descent Other Notes: The son and pupil of the portrait painter and dealer Henry Morland (1716-1797), George Morland is especially known for his charming scenes of rural life. He was a precocious and prolific painter who learnt to draw at the age of three, exhibited at the Royal Academy at the age of ten and attained a considerable reputation among artists of repute by the age of seventeen. His talents were carefully cultivated by his father, who encouraged him to copy pictures of the Dutch and Flemish Old Masters in particular. He was even introduced to Sir Joshua Reynolds in order to obtain a permission to copy his paintings. George Morland produced a vast amount of work in spite of a dissolute lifestyle, drinking and hiding from his creditors and even ending up in prison. Several of Morland's works depict inns in a rustic countryside with signs featuring bells. A smaller comparable example by Morland showing a "Bell Inn" is at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, and a drawing at the Fitzwilliam Museum, "Mid-day Rest at the Bell Inn" captures a similar building and tree. This same scene at Kilburn is the subject of an engraving by John Raphael Smith after Morland, "The Return from the Market", published 1793, where the bell sign also features above the door. (see Richard S. Sabin, George Morland (1763-1804): A Descriptive Catalogue of a Collection of Sixty Colour Prints Engraved after His Paintings, exh. cat., Frank T. Sabin, London, 1935, no. 18). John Knight was an important landowner in the area around Kidderminster in Worcestershire, where his Wolverley and Lea estates were situated. He lived at Lea Castle, and was one of the most important patrons of James Ward. George Morland married James's sister Anne Nancy Ward in 1786. Lined and cleaned. The paint layer is stable. There is an old damage near the centre of the painting which has been repaired and is now obvious as the retouchings has discoloured over time. Varnish is glossy and even. There is some wear to the gilding on the frame but it is generally in a good condition. Old label: From John Knight, Lea Castle, Wolverley, Kidderminster, March 1826.

Exhibited: Erskine Nicol's finished painting "Interviewing the Member, Lease Refused" was exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1879.
