Lot 95
A rare pearlware Napoleonic jug c.1813, printed and hand-coloured to one side with a Russian soldier holding a rifle over his shoulder from which are suspended the corpses of five Frenchmen, titled 'A Russian Boor returning from his Field sports', the reverse with 'Boney Sneaking into Paris at Midnight', some good restoration, 14.2cm. The French defeat in Russia at the end of 1812 demonstrated that Napoleon was not invincible nor the military genius that many supposed him to be. Both prints are taken from cartoons etched by George Cruikshank after Russian originals by Terebenev, and were published in January 1813. Cf. David Drakard, Printed English Pottery, pp.230-238 for a discussion of wares using these prints.
