A BRISTOL DELFT POLYCHROME FARMYARD PLATE
Lot 308Artists and makers have long looked to the natural world for inspiration, and the lots displayed on these two pages demonstrate the way in which a subject from nature can be approached differently in order to cater for different tastes. Both English and made in the mid- 18th century, the naturalist attention to detail and delicate trompe l'oeil treatment of the Chelsea porcelain partridge tureen contrasts nicely with the rustic and two-dimensional depiction of the birds in the five Bristol delftware farmyard dishes.
