DERBY
PORCELAIN FRAMED NAMED VIEW CERAMIC PLAQUE,
"DARLEY GROVE", ATTRIBUTED TO RICHARD
ABLOTT C.1825-30
"An interesting, rare and
attractive Regency Derby porcelain plaque dating from circa
1825-1830. It is skilfully painted with a delightful named view
landscape of Darley Grove - a beauty spot near Derby. The
wooden frame is made of Regency mahogany and is probably the
original, contemporary with the plaque. This is almost certainly
the work of noted 19th century Derby landscape artist Richard
Ablott. A great example of a rare Derby porcelain plaque for the
appreciative collector of fine antique English porcelain."

comparative landscape on Derby by Richard Ablott see,

Derby appear rare. Later landscape plaques were also produced
while Ablott was at Coalport and Davenport and command high
prices.
