This tile, created by English potter John Sadler between 1757 and 1761, depicts a scene of three figures in an outdoor setting. The intricate black and white design, likely a transfer print, showcases the intricate details of the figures' clothing and the ornate border. The tile is a testament to Sadler's mastery of the transfer printing technique, which allowed for the mass production of decorative ceramic objects. Today, the tile is part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection in New York City, a testament to its artistic and historical significance.
