Examples of Battersea enamels bearing this print may have been commissioned by the Duke of Dorset during his second term of office as Viceroy to Ireland in 1750-53. The industry suffered from the imposition of a tax on importations of Irish sail cloth into England in March 1750.

Condition

The plaque is in overall good condition. There is a blackened firing crack running in from the mount to the right for about 2cm. There is a fine crack in the top left corner running in at about 45 degrees which is about 2.5cm long. Just below this are two short cracks running in from the mount for just a few millimetres. Another very short crack runs in from the mount just above the bottom right hand corner. There is no scratching. On there reverse, there are just a few typical fine cracks.
