Description
A Flight, Barr and Barr, Worcester inkstand, circa 1815
Probably by Thomas Baxter, applied with a gilt serpent handle and with two covers, the deep blue ground reserving three landscape panels, each framed with coloured enamel jewelling, 15cm wide, full script mark and titles of the views in black enamel (3)
Footnotes:
The delicate jewelled borders are very much associated with Thomas Baxter, as is the use of black enamel for the factory marks and titles. His pupils would undoubtedly have learnt to paint simple souvenir views, but the delicate treatment of the subjects on this inkwell strongly suggest that Baxter himself was responsible.
