EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph, titled "Frederick Rathbone's Old Wedgwood: The Decorative or Artistic Ceramic Work Produced by Josiah Wedgwood," showcases an enchanting collection of medallions and mounted pieces. The medallions feature intricately designed motifs, including a nymph cradling a cupid as Hope, Cupid shaping his bow, and Cupid riding on the back of a swan. The ethereal beauty of Calliope, the Greek goddess of epic poetry, graces another medallion. Mounted pieces in the image include a gold box with an exquisite cameo of Catherine II, the Empress of Russia, a buckle adorned with the image of Bonnie Prince Charlie, the claimant to the British throne, a scent flacon depicting Jupiter with an eagle, and a pair of toothpick boxes. The intricate details and vibrant colors of these pieces highlight the exceptional craftsmanship of Josiah Wedgwood's decorative ceramic work. The chromolithograph, published by Quaritch, London, in 1898, offers a glimpse into the rich history of Wedgwood's artistic creations. The combination of mythological figures and historical figures in the medallions and mounted pieces adds to the allure and timeless appeal of this collection. This stunning representation of Wedgwood's decorative ceramics is a testament to the company's commitment to producing exquisite and intricately designed pieces that continue to captivate collectors and admirers alike.
