White earthenware, moulded, lead-glazed and painted overglaze in blue, green, yellow, brown, red-brown and black enamels, and cold gilding. The lion stands on a separately-made rectangular base with a border of acanthus leaves in relief. Its right forepaw rests on a ball, and its body is supported in two places by a rock. The lion is painted naturalistically in brown, red-brown and black, the base and rock are marbled, the acanthus moulding is picked out in green and gold, and the ball is gold. The underside is recessed and glazed; a central wall makes two squares, in one of which is a round vent hole.

They were generally made at smaller potteries, drawing on a variety of sources, including sculpture and porcelain figures, and are rarely marked. Classical, biblical, mythological and literary subjects were popular. Earlier figures are moulded, perhaps with moulded or modelled parts added, the bases often formed separately. After around 1810-1820, they are often more vibrantly coloured and by c.1835 three-part press-moulding had largely taken over, enabling cheaper and faster production for a growing market. The model for this lion figure is a 2nd century Roman figure which stands at the entrance of the Loggia dei Lanzi in Florence with a companion sculpted by Flaminio Vacca in 1594. The ancient lion was originally sculpted in high relief and was cut from its ground in 1591, which perhaps account for the ‘marble’ support between the right legs here. The lions were moved from the gardens of the Villa Medici in Rome, to Florence, in 1789. Small scale reproductions of these, in stone, marble, plaster or bronze, circulated widely and may have been the source for earthenware lions, which were produced in pairs and perhaps placed at opposite ends of a dresser or bookcase. This is the most accurate of several Staffordshire lions in the Fitzwilliam Collection. reference term-106779 adlib-term-106779 f0706fcd-d94c-3987-bcb5-f7f794332b6a 18th Century, Late reference term-108171 adlib-term-108171 c943fe08-bd72-32ab-823c-e1eeb56717b3 literal England England country Burslem blue-tinted reference term-107733 adlib-term-107733 00160189-e3ce-3796-a88b-5aa8d6c808c4 lead-glaze white reference term-42861 adlib-term-42861 5b368285-f1a8-3dcf-a5b2-637fd3c3956c earthenware Height cm 25.2 Length cm 31.2 Width cm 15.2 reference media-43231 adlib-media-43231 f4adb4d3-4355-3104-8f76-6c1fab39e6a9 jpeg aa/aa8/C_36_1983_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 550 width pixels 760 1742583180040 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/mid_C_36_1983_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 362 width pixels 500 1742583180040 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/C_36_1983_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 550 width pixels 760 1742583180040 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/preview_C_36_1983_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 181 width pixels 250 1742583180040 1 image 0 media image reference media-43232 adlib-media-43232 7f8e8c35-5cf7-3b6d-87fa-53f2fdce52ff jpeg aa/aa8/C_36_1983_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 550 width pixels 760 1742583229197 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/mid_C_36_1983_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 362 width pixels 500 1742583229197 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/C_36_1983_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 550 width pixels 760 1742583229197 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/preview_C_36_1983_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 181 width pixels 250 1742583229197 1 image 1 media image reference term-110277 adlib-term-110277 97f1ad1c-7b1d-373a-b0ae-ed010d95f37b animal figure reference term-134443 adlib-term-134443 1f927ae4-091f-35a9-b59f-e49a35bcf525 Staffordshire figure (early) history note unknown before donor 1 same source reference object-71278 adlib-object-71278 96ce7e2e-b9c7-396c-8c8d-17d621553c1b
