Painted with black, brown, green, pink and orange-red enamels, and gilt. The oval base is squeezed to a thin rectangular shape at either end; a gilt line runs across the front, and above it a small ribbon is inscribed ‘THE REDAN’ in raised, gilded capitals. The top of the base is moulded to indicate a rocky outcrop, and painted brown; on the viewer’s right is a flight of five white steps, edged in black. Above, the walls of the castle stand to either side of a round, central tower, which is in three tapering tiers edged with pink and green shards representing moss. The top of the tower is open. The building walls are brown, and are moulded to suggest blocks, castellation, and portholes for the mouths of cannon. The underside is concave and glazed. The back is shaped and part-moulded. There is a 5cm circular opening on top of the tower, forming a vase.

Moulds for a model of Sebastopol are among those that have been found at the Sampson Smith factory. According to Woolliscroft, that model of Sebastopol is the one shown in Balston, which is a companion piece to this model of The Redan (and also Malakoff). It is therefore likely that this is a Sampson Smith model. The Crimean War (1854-56), in which France, England and Turkey formed an alliance against the Russian Empire, was a popular source for Staffordshire figures. The Redan was part of Sebastopol, a Russian fortress, which fell to the allies in September 1855, after a year-long siege. Staffordshire models were also made of the Sebastopol gateway and of the Malakoff outwork, the three forming a matched set. The open topped round tower may have been used as a spill-vase. The three models are generally found with a French tricolour flying from the top of the tower. Close examination of this one shows the beginning of some moulding for the flag pole, but the top of the tower is fully glazed. It thus appears that this model was made without a flag, or perhaps that it broke off at the biscuit firing stage. reference term-109672 adlib-term-109672 a788e98b-c8a4-313c-9617-1a812228e864 19th Century, Mid reference term-15214 adlib-term-15214 744af2c4-a2f2-37ad-bbf4-2cd00e91ed9b Victorian reference term-107658 adlib-term-107658 824d3ecf-92c1-33aa-8d45-2f0239317270 literal England England country Staffordshire reference term-107611 adlib-term-107611 790e5a19-a186-34d5-a16e-2d8dff9f6247 white earthenware reference term-107733 adlib-term-107733 00160189-e3ce-3796-a88b-5aa8d6c808c4 lead-glaze Depth cm 10.5 Depth in 4.125 Height cm 19 Height in 7.5 Width cm 21.5 Width in 8.25 reference media-33945 adlib-media-33945 ecc47217-ee2f-3370-9146-95546da40076 jpeg aa/aa2/C_1019_1928_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 550 width pixels 760 1702926742233 1 image jpeg aa/aa2/mid_C_1019_1928_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 362 width pixels 500 1702926742233 1 image jpeg aa/aa2/C_1019_1928_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 550 width pixels 760 1702926742233 1 image jpeg aa/aa2/preview_C_1019_1928_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 181 width pixels 250 1702926742233 1 image 0 media image reference media-33946 adlib-media-33946 3196b694-1435-3478-adca-71c79d44a0d6 jpeg aa/aa2/C_1019_1928_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 550 width pixels 760 1702926714879 1 image jpeg aa/aa2/mid_C_1019_1928_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 362 width pixels 500 1702926714879 1 image jpeg aa/aa2/C_1019_1928_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 550 width pixels 760 1702926714879 1 image jpeg aa/aa2/preview_C_1019_1928_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 181 width pixels 250 1702926714879 1 image 1 media image reference media-33947 adlib-media-33947 f451fbc7-d529-3ecb-808c-59cb8a3011ae jpeg aa/aa2/C_1019_1928_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 550 width pixels 760 1702926711394 1 image jpeg aa/aa2/mid_C_1019_1928_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 362 width pixels 500 1702926711394 1 image jpeg aa/aa2/C_1019_1928_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 550 width pixels 760 1702926711394 1 image jpeg aa/aa2/preview_C_1019_1928_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 181 width pixels 250 1702926711394 1 image 2 media image reference term-132643 adlib-term-132643 68a6c7c9-6dbc-3535-8fd0-b750baa7827c model building object name reference term-116876 adlib-term-116876 7d48aadc-47e9-3419-98a2-b9d9a5ea75f7 spill vase object name reference term-130674 adlib-term-130674 2728ba11-801b-318a-8f24-c6f4b99f08e3 Victorian Staffordshire figure category reference term-130678 adlib-term-130678 c683fbc6-ba3a-3ab1-b2f5-41493ff3588d flat-backed figure category history note Mr Graham, proprietor of a shop in the Brompton Road, who said he had bought it shortly before at Lincoln.
