专家说明


The design for these wine coolers was created by John Flaxman, the virtuoso neoclassical sculptor, engraver and designer for Josiah Wedgwood and the royal goldsmiths Rundell, Bridge and Rundell. Flaxman's design is based on the description of a pottery cup in the first Idyll of Theocritus (c.300-260 BC), the Alexandrian pastoral poet. The pen and ink design drawing by Flaxman is preserved at the Victoria and Albert Museum (V 2410). A Theocritus Cup by Paul Storr for Rundell, Bridge & Rundell, 1812, was presented to King George IV, when Prince Regent by his mother Queen Charlotte. It remains in the Royal Collection (RCIN 51538).
