拍品专文

Bartholomew Green (1697 - c. 1746) was born in Boston as the son of a mariner. Very little is known about his life or training as a silversmith, with previous suggestions of his apprenticeship to Henry Hurst lacking source evidence. Patricia E. Kane only notes three works which can be attributed to Bartholomew Green (P. Kane, Colonial Massachusetts Silversmiths and Jewelers, New Haven, 1998, p. 506), two porringers and a spout cup in the collection of the Museum of Fine Art, Boston (Acc. No. 20.1844).
