A very rare 'Bargeman' Toby Jug, circa 1790

Item Details

Description

A very rare 'Bargeman' Toby Jug, circa 1790
Modelled on a rectangular base with a curved front, the back and sides applied with portrait medallions above swags of laurel leaves, an anchor resting between his legs, standing and holding a flask in his left hand and a small glass in his right, wearing a grey jacket and blue waistcoat and pantaloons, his shoes and shallow hat picked out in brown, 24.5cm high
Footnotes:
Provenance
Bute Collection, Christie's, 8 July 1996, lot 9
James and Timmey Challenger Collection, Chicago

Another example is illustrated by Captain R K Price, Astbury, Whieldon, and Ralph Wood Figures, and Toby Jugs (1922), pl.LI, no.86 where it is suggested that the portrait medallions on the base represent King George III, while the jug represents a waterman of the King's barge. The same example is also illustrated by Vic Schuler, Collecting British Toby Jugs (third edition, 1999), p.71 and discussed at p.27 where it is stated that only four examples of the model are recorded.
This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: *
* VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.

Condition

The handle is restored. The flask, goblet and both hands are restored. The base is restored and there is some restoration to the hat, mostly at the back. The restoration has involved the overpainting of the surface in the affected areas and it is not possible to determine what damage it conceals.
