專家說明

Mrs. Thatcher collected porcelain figures of historical figures by Michael Sutty which she favoured for their accuracy. The Latham Centrepiece was her favourite amongst this group, depicting Lt. Matthew Latham and Ensign Charles Walsh defending The King’s Colour during the battle of Albuhera, during the Napoleonic Wars. Mrs. Thatcher describes her particular fondness for this piece in an
interview for the BBC program ‘Favourite Things’, conducted at Downing Street in the mid-1980s.
