Lot 77
A John Rose Coalport 'Animal Service' dessert ice pail or fruit cooler, circa 1800-1805, dark blue ground with simple gilt, painted with a circular panel of a Striped Hyena, opposed by a further roundel of a gentleman watering his horse before a large country estate, likely taken from one of the smaller engravings interspersed throughout the pages, of Bewick's Quadrupeds, complete with original liner and a cover further painted with game birds in flight and winged insects, unmarked and untitled, 26cm high See Bewick, Thomas, Ralph Beilby, 1800. A General History of Quadrupeds : The Figures Engraved on Wood. Newcastle upon Tyne, S. Hodgson, R. Beilby, & T. Bewick. See footnote for further details. Footnote:The animal painting, from which this service takes its title, is inspired by Thomas Bewick's A History of Quadrupeds, published in 1800. The Bewick Society states that the extent of the original service is unknown, but it likely would have comprised a centre dish, a selection of side dishes, tureens, plates and perhaps a pair of ice pails. (1) The scope of potential inspiration was enormous, with over 200 different woodcut engravings. The most extensive known offering of pieces reached the market in 1970, including a 'Polar Bear' centre dish and 'Hartebeest' lozenge dish, all of which was secured for the nation with the V&A Purchase Grant Fund and are now on display at the Shrewsbury Museum and Art Gallery. Further plates have cropped up sporadically throughout the years.The principal decorator is not definitively known, although they were almost certainly from London and working outside the factory. Roger Edmundson, however, has proposed Charles Muss (1779-1824) as at least one of the painters of this service, of which the pieces sometimes vary in style and are perhaps by more than one hand. The reasoning for this attribution includes known pieces of this service illustrated in Messenger's Coalport book and displayed at the Shrewsbury Museum and Art Gallery to exhibit aspects of Muss's technical work. For example, the 'Tigers' stripes are carefully drawn, predominantly with two fine lines and shading alongside visible outlines to some of the legs. For this, Edmundson suggests, 'Muss probably decorated some or all of the animals'. (2) Charles Muss' father was the son of an Italian artist, Beneficio, who came to London in or around 1778. Beneficio set up as a drawing master in Newcastle-upon-Tyne when Charles was eleven years old; therefore, it is likely that Charles worked under his father's instruction. Charles exhibited several works after moving to London, including Dunkeld Castle at the Royal Academy in 1800. He later produced an enamelled plaque with a named and dated view of the Coalport China Works in 1804. After several years' break, during which time his daughter was born, he again exhibited seven further works at the Royal Academy between 1817 and 1823. He produced enamels on glass and copper, including portraits and works after old master subjects. His work extended to stained glass works, with known examples of these being Eaton Hall in Cheshire and St. Bride's Church in London, among others.

It must also be noted that some other pieces do exist using the same source inspiration but with entirely different borders and overall grounds, including a 'Hyena' campagna vase with stylised purple scrolling and puce ground in Shrewsbury Museum and Art Gallery (SHYMS: C/2565).
