"Millenium" alternate name "Millennium" (sp) Peace on Earth 10 1/2" W Staffordshire brown transferware plate, 1810-1835, Ralph Stevenson & Son. Description - At the top of the plate is the all-seeing eye of God. Below is the Bible opened to Isaiah's prophecy, Ch.XI.VI: "The wolf also shall dwell with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them". This describes the scene in the center of the plate. The dove and the olive branch are symbolic of "Peace on Earth" which is written below them. The man beneath the scene of the child and lion is a follower of Christ reciting the "Lord's Prayer", which includes "Give us this day our daily bread". The lush fruit, flowers, and sheaves of grain in the border symbolize the fertility of nature that will abound during the Millennium.
