The latter attacked the Whig government's tolerance of Dissenters (non-conformists). The government prosecuted Sacheverell and he was banned from preaching or holding a living for three years.Probably made in London, but earlier it was thought that it might be Dutch because of the use of kwaart.referenceterm-106655adlib-term-106655ee8a7821-8b3c-3059-913f-eca0d91befec18th Century, Early#referenceterm-106216adlib-term-106216825b8379-ec94-388e-9a59-624e40c090d0literalEnglandEnglandcountrypossiblyLondonbuffreferenceterm-42861adlib-term-428615b368285-f1a8-3dcf-a5b2-637fd3c3956cearthenwarekwaartreferenceterm-107733adlib-term-10773300160189-e3ce-3796-a88b-5aa8d6c808c4lead-glazewhitereferenceterm-39575adlib-term-39575cdf6707a-1eeb-3622-a26b-6e54f1f8d4abtin-glazeDiametercm36referencemedia-169566adlib-media-169566bf1387e0-5e17-37f9-9eff-3bf81b126f1ejpegaa/aa27/C_1357_1928.jpg1heightpixels760widthpixels60116162754948761imagejpegaa/aa27/mid_C_1357_1928.jpg1heightpixels632widthpixels50016162754948761imagejpegaa/aa27/C_1357_1928.jpg1heightpixels760widthpixels60116162754948761imagejpegaa/aa27/preview_C_1357_1928.jpg1heightpixels316widthpixels25016162754948761image0media
