W. L. Glaisher reference term-1111 adlib-term-1111 46c949dd-f376-3538-878f-397baee5be09 mythology Applied Arts Soft-paste porcelain group of Two Putti playing with a Dolphin. Soft-paste porcelain containing bone ash, thickly press-moulded, and glazed on the exterior, and on most of the interior of the large ventilation hole under the right putto. The rest of the underside is flat and unglazed. The group is supported on an oval low mound base decorated with applied flowers and leaves. The putti are naked but each has a long drape passing over one shoulder. One putto sits on the right with his left leg raised in the air and his right leg bent with the foot on the ground. His arms are raised towards the other putto and he looks towards the viewer. The other putto strides over the other's raised leg with his left leg, and bends back slightly as he grasps the struggling dolphin in his arms. The dolphin is scaly and has in its gaping mouth a square aperture to take a candle branch.

He also illustrated a small bronze (pl. 24a) but did not attribute it or state its ownership.
