"In Volume 4 of this all-encompassing, multi-volume set, which
catalogs the vast range of enamel-painted figures produced mostly
in the Staffordshire Potteries between 1780 and 1840, figures
portraying family, children at play, the Temperance Movement,
classical subjects, busts, and much more are covered. The text
discusses distinguishing real works from reproductions and
evaluating their quality. It includes over 1100 brilliant color
photographs, as well as information about the potters and design
sources, along with a values guide. Among the figures are
contemporary portrayals of weddings, christenings, and other family
scenes, forms emblematic of the seasons, elements, and continents,
and a multitude of characters portraying classical subjects. Many
of these pieces are hauntingly beautiful and have long been hidden
from the public eye. These impressive portrayals give us rare
glimpses of a world that has vanished long ago.
