One of an excellent pictorial series from Wedgwood of hunting subjects, a surprised dog and a startled game bird. A good quality print in a nice shade of blue. Likely a design after Henry Hope Crealock, noted military man and illustrator although unlikely to be an exclusive design for Wedgwood, they along with much of the pottery industry copied many designs from books.

Verso is fully named and very clean.

The image is full size at 72 dpi (about 430 pixels wide) in maximum quality JPEG format. A larger 120 dpi image also in maximum quality JPEG format can be forwarded by email if required.

The image is a little oversize rather than cropped close to the edges so that the edges can easily be seen and any chips etc can be quickly spotted. Other marks described are usually not visible at all when the tile is viewed straight as one normally sees it and can only be seen with a critical eye when the tile is tilted to catch imperfections in reflected light. For more details of how we describe marks see Condition.
