DESCRIPTIVE DATA
----------------
object type: Cream earthenware, possibly coated with white slip, decorated under lead-glaze with streaks of brownish-yellow, olive-green, and brown oxide colours, and lead-glazed on the visible surfaces. The figures are supported on a roughly rectangular base with sloping sides which is decorated on top with applied flowers and leaves and cherub-masks.  At the back of the base is a tree with lateral branches bearing applied leaves and at the top, four perching birds.  A cow standing in front of it with its head looking towards the viewer, is being milked into a bucket by a woman seated on a three-legged stool. She wears a bodice and skirt, and a flat wide-brimmed hat, and leans her head against the cow's flank as she milks.  A bird stands on the ground behind her, and a smaller scale woman stands to the right of her.
