For a teabowl and saucer from this service, from the Mottahedah Collection and before that from the Martin-Hurst Collection, see Howard and Ayers, China for the West, London and New York, 1978, vol.II, p. 526, no. 537, where the authors suggest that this scene may be taken from an engraving after Jean Etienne Liotard. See Hervouët and Bruneau, La Porcelaine des Compagnies des Indes à Décor Occidental, Paris, 1986, p. 127, fig. 6.39 for a coffee-cup in the Victoria and Albert Museum; the authors inform us that the anonymous 18th Century painting with this scene is in the Town Hall Museum in La Rochelle.
