The melon is roughly pear-shaped, with a broad stalk at the narrow end, on either side of which there is a stalk and a large leaf. Part of another leaf projects from below the wide end of the melon. The cover is domed, more so at the wide end than the narrow, and on top has a stalk with two narrow leaves. Another feature, perhaps a bud or another leaf forming the knob is missing. A large yellow and manganese-purple snail grazes on the stalk of the lower part. On the underside of the leaves and melon there are three spur marks. 16-332 reference exhibition-3305 adlib-exhibition-3305 534a3247-91a9-398f-abe9-7b419586f568 Feast and Fast: The Art of Food in Europe (1500-1800) C.2886 & A-1928 1 accession number C.2886 & A-1928 76765 priref 76765 uri https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/76765 https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/76765 reference agent-149638 adlib-agent-149638 7376d833-d0a7-3be0-916e-9c892b7a24d8 The Fitzwilliam Museum Dr J.

Rackham (1935), considered it might have been from Strasburg rather than Höchst. It was probably intended to be used for a desert, partly as a container for food and partly as an ornament. reference term-113159 adlib-term-113159 4bdfb4a7-b307-3dfa-a3d6-8ada4683271e 18th Century, third quarter reference term-110407 adlib-term-110407 08d0f686-1347-3bb9-a466-b33699f5f2c6 literal Germany Germany country literal Electorate of Mainz Electorate of Mainz region Höchst-am-Main reference term-15506 adlib-term-15506 25d3bddf-2a7c-38b9-86a8-92b53c82cb70 literal Germany Germany country Strasbourg reference term-39575 adlib-term-39575 cdf6707a-1eeb-3622-a26b-6e54f1f8d4ab tin-glaze reference term-42861 adlib-term-42861 5b368285-f1a8-3dcf-a5b2-637fd3c3956c earthenware Height cm 10.2 reference media-48468 adlib-media-48468 a70f5322-a4c1-3c58-8a83-223162471794 jpeg aa/aa1/C_2886_20_26_20A_1928_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 550 width pixels 760 1742583675887 1 image jpeg aa/aa1/mid_C_2886_20_26_20A_1928_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 362 width pixels 500 1742583675887 1 image jpeg aa/aa1/C_2886_20_26_20A_1928_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 550 width pixels 760 1742583675887 1 image jpeg aa/aa1/preview_C_2886_20_26_20A_1928_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 181 width pixels 250 1742583675887 1 image 0 media image reference media-48469 adlib-media-48469 e85b789f-7658-35fc-b1a0-d3b3f30158c4 jpeg aa/aa1/C_2886_20_26_20A_1928_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 550 width pixels 760 1742583670746 1 image jpeg aa/aa1/mid_C_2886_20_26_20A_1928_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 362 width pixels 500 1742583670746 1 image jpeg aa/aa1/C_2886_20_26_20A_1928_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 550 width pixels 760 1742583670746 1 image jpeg aa/aa1/preview_C_2886_20_26_20A_1928_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 181 width pixels 250 1742583670746 1 image 1 media image reference media-48470 adlib-media-48470 c723983b-fee5-358c-9017-248813d9d307 jpeg aa/aa1/C_2886_20_26_20A_1928_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 550 width pixels 760 1742583682936 1 image jpeg aa/aa1/mid_C_2886_20_26_20A_1928_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 362 width pixels 500 1742583682936 1 image jpeg aa/aa1/C_2886_20_26_20A_1928_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 550 width pixels 760 1742583682936 1 image jpeg aa/aa1/preview_C_2886_20_26_20A_1928_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 181 width pixels 250 1742583682936 1 image 2 media image reference media-48471 adlib-media-48471 39e3fe04-d029-3621-80f4-16e5ea7a8184 jpeg aa/aa1/C_2886_20_26_20A_1928_284_29.jpg 1 height pixels 550 width pixels 760 1742583735249 1 image jpeg aa/aa1/mid_C_2886_20_26_20A_1928_284_29.jpg 1 height pixels 362 width pixels 500 1742583735249 1 image jpeg aa/aa1/C_2886_20_26_20A_1928_284_29.jpg 1 height pixels 550 width pixels 760 1742583735249 1 image jpeg aa/aa1/preview_C_2886_20_26_20A_1928_284_29.jpg 1 height pixels 181 width pixels 250 1742583735249 1 image 3 media image reference media-48472 adlib-media-48472 4cffaf57-8eb9-3865-b5e5-66f3da832739 jpeg aa/aa1/C_2886_20_26_20A_1928_285_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1742583663447 1 image jpeg aa/aa1/mid_C_2886_20_26_20A_1928_285_29.jpg 1 height pixels 649 width pixels 500 1742583663447 1 image jpeg aa/aa1/C_2886_20_26_20A_1928_285_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1742583663447 1 image jpeg aa/aa1/preview_C_2886_20_26_20A_1928_285_29.jpg 1 height pixels 325 width pixels 250 1742583663447 1 image 4 media image reference term-106246 adlib-term-106246 3c8d7753-a7af-38fc-96e0-f16e7d46d3d0 box reference term-107478 adlib-term-107478 81002e74-5083-37b8-a429-4a303fc40695 cover history note David Kugelmann, Kissingen, from whom purchased for 25 marks on 2 August 1899 by Dr J.W.L.
