This Wedgwood jasperware plaque, titled *Plaque with Jupiter Battling Titans*, depicts the Greek myth of the Titanomachy, where Zeus, the king of the gods, battles the Titans. The plaque's blue and white color scheme and relief-like design are characteristic of the Wedgwood Manufactory's jasperware, a type of ceramic that was highly popular in the 18th and 19th centuries. The scene is depicted in a highly detailed and dramatic manner, with figures in various poses and expressions, adding a sense of dynamism and grandeur to this small yet intricate piece of art.
