1971.757.21The plate survives in good condition with light wear to the gilded rim.
Ex coll. Mrs. E. Tatnall (Mary Corbit) Warner. A note in her handwriting on a paper label applied to the underside of a saucer (acc. no. 1971.757.16) states that the tea and coffee service to which the plate belongs was acquired by Capt. James Jefferis for his daughter Ann, who married David Wilson Jr.
This small plate is part of a partial service of one slop bowl (1971.757.1), three coffee cups (1971.757.2-.4), a tea cup (1971.757.5), thirteen deep saucers (1971.757.6-.18), and four small plates (1971.757.19-.22). The service is decorated with black transfer-printed designs of "Stately Homes," being images of English country houses and ruins. This plate shows an image of a country house with two projecting ovoid bays and a mother, child and dog on a leash in front. The rim has a thick and a thin gold band around the outside edge.
