IDENTIFIERS ----------- id: 76428 accession number: C.947B-1928 DATE AUDIT ---------- created: Saturday 6 August 2011 updated: Wednesday 15 July 2020 DESCRIPTIVE DATA ---------------- object type: Earthenware figure group with two cows, one on either side of a tall hollow tree trunk. The tops of the trunk and its two branches are open, forming the spill vase. In the hollow of the tree, a boy sits playing a pipe, his right leg crossed over his left, some music on his lap and his hat hung beside him on the trunk. A milkmaid on a three-legged stool milks the left-hand cow and a herd leans against the other. Two white birds sit at the boy’s feet. Behind each cow is a leafy tree with flowers. The scene is painted in bright coloured enamels: the trunks brown with red-brown interior striped with cream; the leaves green with blue and red flowers; the cows brown and white; the maid in flowered dress and white cap; the herd in pale green coat and black hat; and the boy in striped shirt and brown jacket. It stands on a wide mounded base which is painted green and brown and decorated with applied leaves and flowers, as if fallen from the bocage, and scattered green clumps. The back is flattened, but fully shaped and decorated. The underside of the base is recessed slightly under each cow and glazed inside a narrow foot-rim. object type: Earthenware figure group, moulded and modelled, lead glazed and painted with polychrome enamels. title: figure group NOTES ----- type: history note value: Captain Reynolds, Tiptree, Kelvedon, Essex.
