ETRURIA ANTIQUES GALLERY

Wedgwood C1770
Vase: Orpheus & a Stag
In black basalt, decorated with en grisaille painting of Orpheus seated on a rock, playing his lyre. His playing and singing were so beautiful that even animals came to listen, such as this stag.

Not marked, but it’s Wedgwood decoration on a Wedgwood shape and I’m quite certain of the attribution.

Exhibited: Wedgwood, Master Potter to the Universe, Roche Foundation, 2023.

Light scratch to front as shown.
