(Wedgwood Archives, University of Keele, L1-204). The plasters are in the Wedgwood Archives.The design probably originated in a pair of plaster vases, one decorated with a triton and one with a satyr, symbolizing water and wine, exhibited at the Académie de Saint-Luc in Paris in 1774 by Sigisbert-François Michel (1728-1811), nephew of Claude Michel, known as Clodion (1738-1814). See Documentation.The ewers were no. 236 in the Wedgwood Shape Book (54.30019) where they were described as 'Marine & Satyr Handles & Ewer Sacred/to Neptune & Bacchus'. They are also in the Shape Book water-marked 1794 rebound in 1916. They sold at 42/- ( 2 guineas) in black and 105/- (5 guineas) in jasper. They were still in production in 1878, when included in The Wedgwood Illustrated Catalogue of Ornamental Shapes 1878.referenceterm-106779adlib-term-106779f0706fcd-d94c-3987-bcb5-f7f794332b6a18th Century, Latereferenceterm-107437adlib-term-10743796f4b0d1-fc11-39ff-ae91-1b23d888d479George IIIreferenceterm-113623adlib-term-11362387ef9eaf-54a8-3838-8337-94dbf03aad62literalEnglandEnglandcountryliteralStaffordshireStaffordshireregionEtruriareferenceterm-42807adlib-term-4280739fbe2f8-78d1-3f75-a8ca-2643967b2f2dblack basaltBasecm11x11.2Heightcm40.5referencemedia-11365adlib-media-113655438faf3-80e0-3d63-a7e5-c1763bfa7646jpegaa/aa8/MAR_C_1B_1912_281_29.jpg1heightpixels740widthpixels57017029267188401imagejpegaa/aa8/mid_MAR_C_1B_1912_281_29.jpg1heightpixels649widthpixels50017029267188401imagejpegaa/aa8/MAR_C_1B_1912_281_29.jpg1heightpixels740widthpixels57017029267188401imagejpegaa/aa8/preview_MAR_C_1B_1912_281_29.jpg1heightpixels325widthpixels25017029267188401image0media
