Platter 1822 - 1837

This transfer-printed earthenware platter, created by the Clews brothers between 1822 and 1837, is a fine example of English pottery. It features a picturesque landscape scene with a river and a town in the distance. The platter is decorated with a floral border and a central image that depicts a rural scene with a cart drawn by an ox, likely a representation of the English countryside. The Clews brothers were known for their high-quality transfer-printed wares, and this platter is a testament to their skill. The platter is part of the collection at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
