Overglaze
Printing on Porcelain 1750-1800, printed and painted
Additional Image:
The reverse of the teapot bears a print of Frederick the Great, King of Prussia. This is the rarest of the three engravings of him that Robert Hancock produced for porcelain decoration. The print is signed RH (for Robert Hancock) Worcester and an anchor (the rebus of Richard Holdship, who seems to have been responsible for transfer-printing at the Worcester factory). In addition, half hidden in the scroll, R Hancock fecit Worcester is inscribed.
