It was also produced in biscuit porcelain from about 1770-1. The model was derived from the monument in Westminster Abbey, designed by William Kent (1685-1748) and executed in marble by Peter Scheemakers (1681-1761) in 1740. Its direct source was probably a reduced-size plaster. such as one of those stocked by John Cheere in London. It was often sold as a pair with Milton, see C.108-1932. 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-110521 adlib-term-110521 b57fb046-bca3-3371-a721-2093adc3a282 literal England England country Derby biscuit reference term-37637 adlib-term-37637 89b09133-dc0a-3a88-bd40-5aef1ad30ecb soft-paste porcelain Height cm 17.5 Width cm 10.2 reference media-34256 adlib-media-34256 c79f3ff6-cdaf-38d5-b159-95044b9e8edd jpeg aa/aa2/C_107_1932_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1702926539498 1 image jpeg aa/aa2/mid_C_107_1932_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 649 width pixels 500 1702926539498 1 image jpeg aa/aa2/C_107_1932_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1702926539498 1 image jpeg aa/aa2/preview_C_107_1932_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 325 width pixels 250 1702926539498 1 image 0 media image reference media-34257 adlib-media-34257 7002bd86-49a4-342f-82ce-536f23cffd46 jpeg aa/aa2/C_107_1932_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1702926484085 1 image jpeg aa/aa2/mid_C_107_1932_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 649 width pixels 500 1702926484085 1 image jpeg aa/aa2/C_107_1932_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1702926484085 1 image jpeg aa/aa2/preview_C_107_1932_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 325 width pixels 250 1702926484085 1 image 1 media image reference term-107454 adlib-term-107454 6ca0f2ab-c1f8-329d-8a45-8f1322f53a20 figure history note Uncertain before Mrs W.D.
