The jug has a bulbous pear-shaped body standing on a outward-curving foot. It has a pointed lip and an ear-shaped strap handle with a vertical groove on each side of its outer edge. The body is decorated with a continuous rural scene. On the extreme right, a woman draws up a bucket from a well. A wheelbarrow stands beside it. Behind her a man leads a horse out of a stable adjacent to a large timber-framed farmhouse with a thatched roof and smoking chimney. On its left, a seated dog is chained to his kennel, and there is another dog behind the wheelbarrow. Two hens are near the first dog and one near the second. In the foreground a dairymaid is milking a red cow, and further to the left is a harrow and a plough, part of a fence and a low tree. Further back, on the left of the house, there is a haystack and a man holding a rake and walking towards an open gate in a fence. Behind it is a field in which a man and a woman are raking and staking hay into heaps. In the distance behind them is a windmill, two houses, and a church against a ridge of hills with small trees on their summits. To the left of the hayfield a man stands on a heap of hay in a cart drawn by two horses, and forks hay up to another man on the top of a large hayrick. Beyond him to the left there are fields, hedges and hills. In the left foreground there is a man on horseback allowing his horse to drink from a duck pond with a tree and part of a fence beside it. Inside the neck there is a red scalloped line. 46 reference exhibition-3305 adlib-exhibition-3305 534a3247-91a9-398f-abe9-7b419586f568 Feast and Fast: The Art of Food in Europe (1500-1800) C.1055-1928 1 accession number C.1055-1928 71240 priref 71240 Glaisher MS Catalogue, vol. 3789 old object number uri https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/71240 https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/71240 on front under lip painted in red Iohn.

Label text from the exhibition ‘Feast and Fast: The Art of Food in Europe, 1500–1800’, on display at The Fitzwilliam Museum from 26 November 2019 until 31 August 2020: Demand for dairy produce increased in eighteenth-century Britain. Ensuring that dairy herds had food during the Winter was critical, so haymaking became an important annual event. This explains its inclusion on John Bridgen’s milk jug, even if by 1780, cows were also being fed with grasses, turnips, and cabbages to guarantee a more consistent, year-round yield. Skilled dairymaids were vital to meeting the demand, milking their cows twice daily, normally at sunrise and before sundown. Another essential task was preparing and storing unweaned calves’ stomachs to provide rennet for curd and cheese production. reference term-106779 adlib-term-106779 f0706fcd-d94c-3987-bcb5-f7f794332b6a 18th Century, Late reference term-107437 adlib-term-107437 96f4b0d1-fc11-39ff-ae91-1b23d888d479 George III reference term-107139 adlib-term-107139 9fd5ef13-3709-388f-b925-702787340e32 literal England England country England cream reference term-42861 adlib-term-42861 5b368285-f1a8-3dcf-a5b2-637fd3c3956c earthenware reference term-107733 adlib-term-107733 00160189-e3ce-3796-a88b-5aa8d6c808c4 lead-glaze Height cm 24.2 Width cm 21.2 reference media-34184 adlib-media-34184 f0bd68e4-39d1-3218-b634-a24f531ca6ee jpeg aa/aa8/C_1055_1928_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1702926377179 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/mid_C_1055_1928_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 649 width pixels 500 1702926377179 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/C_1055_1928_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1702926377179 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/preview_C_1055_1928_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 325 width pixels 250 1702926377179 1 image 0 media image reference media-34185 adlib-media-34185 9ff4ef7c-c258-39d8-a0af-bdfda521c3a9 jpeg aa/aa8/C_1055_1928_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1702926397344 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/mid_C_1055_1928_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 649 width pixels 500 1702926397344 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/C_1055_1928_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1702926397344 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/preview_C_1055_1928_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 325 width pixels 250 1702926397344 1 image 1 media image reference media-34186 adlib-media-34186 c3445f7b-9daf-3c43-b45d-6cb8045bd868 jpeg aa/aa8/C_1055_1928_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1702926364176 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/mid_C_1055_1928_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 649 width pixels 500 1702926364176 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/C_1055_1928_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1702926364176 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/preview_C_1055_1928_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 325 width pixels 250 1702926364176 1 image 2 media image reference media-34187 adlib-media-34187 df8fe245-6bc3-3226-a5ca-c1fb83c8e7a8 jpeg aa/aa8/C_1055_1928_284_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1702926692064 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/mid_C_1055_1928_284_29.jpg 1 height pixels 649 width pixels 500 1702926692064 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/C_1055_1928_284_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1702926692064 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/preview_C_1055_1928_284_29.jpg 1 height pixels 325 width pixels 250 1702926692064 1 image 3 media image reference media-34188 adlib-media-34188 7b245291-81ae-302c-9490-0bcbda6f6508 jpeg aa/aa19/C_1055_1928_285_29.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 578 1702926372060 1 image jpeg aa/aa19/mid_C_1055_1928_285_29.jpg 1 height pixels 657 width pixels 500 1702926372060 1 image jpeg aa/aa19/C_1055_1928_285_29.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 578 1702926372060 1 image jpeg aa/aa19/preview_C_1055_1928_285_29.jpg 1 height pixels 329 width pixels 250 1702926372060 1 image 4 media image reference term-89400 adlib-term-89400 194f8c99-93e1-30de-9465-9209222dafaa jug history note Mr Stewart Acton, 12 Prince Albert Street, Brighton, from whom purchased for £7.10s. on 15 October 1921 by Dr J.W.L.
