Maker: Herculaneum Pottery Engraver: George Martin Engraver's Mark: Description: Enormous pearlware jug made at the Herculaneum Pottery, Toxteth, Liverpool, printed in black with the British naval heroes Nelson, Duncan and Jervis. The Nelson portrait states that he "conquered and fell with glory at Trafalgar" and is signed "G MARTIN Sculp[sit]", i.e. engraved it. Duncan and Jervis are engraved in the same style as Nelson. George Martin is listed in the registers of the church of St Michael-in-the-Hamlet, Toxteth, as 'pottery engraver.' This jug is a a key piece for identifying black-prints used at Herculaneum, including the borders, trophies and floral sprigs as well as the portraits. There are unmarked portraits of Washington and Jefferson which can be attributed to George Martin by comparison with this jug and with a marked Herculaneum jug in the Teitelman Collection. |
