   40. Grecian Daughter


Two contemporary wood-cut images from broadsides on the theme of The Grecian Daughter/Affectionate Daughter.

This figure group, circa 1840, is a bit later than our period, but only just. It may have a somewhat porcelaneous body, and again it shows the Grecian Daughter theme.

The lovely group on the left has lost its bocage, I suspect. The group on the right is shown in Lewis, Pratt Ware, p271. This is one of the rare instances when the underglaze figure group beats the enamel-painted one, hands down.
