Royal Doulton Lambeth Gothic Revival a Comical Jug with Scenes of a Drunk Monk | Dickinson's Real Deal
£450
Royal Doulton. Gothic Revival. A comical jug depicting a monk in three scenes eating his dinner and getting rather drunk. The first scene shows his plate full, and he's beginning to eat the roast chicken and drink.
There is a bird to the lower left side and a flagon of mead to the right. The second scene depicts him halfway through his dinner and flagon, looking rather happy and enjoying himself. The third scene shows him having finished his meal and nodding off, rather drunk from polishing off the flagon, which is laying on its side.
The bird has now jumped up onto the table and is finishing off the scraps. Tony Geering bought this on Dickinson's Real Deal.
