An early 18th-century English delft plate, Lambeth or Bristol, depicting a country landscape with a man and a woman walking, surrounded by shrubs and trees, with a village in the background. The composition covers the entire plate, and characterful details animate the scene, from the period attire of the figures to the fortified architecture of the village. The foliage is rendered in lively sponged green, contrasting with the landscape in painterly blue brushwork and the figures in finely detailed red lines.
A rare plate with a vibrant pastoral scene, unrestored and in very good condition.
