This tin-glazed earthenware plaque, produced by the Alcora Manufactory in Spain between 1750 and 1760, is a beautiful example of 18th-century decorative arts. The plaque, depicting a shepherdess with a bull, sheep, and a barrel, is painted in vibrant colors and showcases the meticulous craftsmanship of the Alcora Manufactory. The elaborate Rococo-style frame adds to the decorative appeal of this piece, which was likely intended to adorn a home or a public space. This piece is a testament to the artistic legacy of the Alcora Manufactory and its significant contribution to Spanish ceramic production.
