Enamel-painted Figures

117.9-10. The figure shown below in 117.9-10 is attributed to Ralph Wood. An unpainted example in the Southport Museum is impressed "Ra. Wood Burslem" and "78", as is the companion figure of a boy playing a pipe. Decoration and the formation of the base support the attribution.

117.9. Attributed to Ralph Wood.

117.10.

117.11.

117.12. This girl with a cat and her companion boy musician are attributed to Ralph Wood, circa 1785. The models are otherwise only known from an unpainted pair recorded in the literature as being in the Southport Museum. Both are said to be marked "Ra. Wood Burslem," and he is also marked "78."

Like the enamel-painted pair in figure 117.1. From Lewis's "Pratt Ware." The authors suggest that the strong palette suggests a Hawley attribution.
