A Staffordshire figure depicting the tale of the vicar who was sipping a little something as he preached, and Moses, his clerk, delivering the sermon. There was a song about these two characters in the 18th century, and although we can't find a copy of it, apparently it caught the imagination of the potters, as there are many versions of this figure.
|
|
This version is not one we have seen before, and is quite appealing with its orange pew and bright yellow swagged border.

|
English, circa 1820. 9 1/2" tall, and no damage or restoration.
