C.f. John and Griselda Lewis, Pratt Ware, p.239, for an illustration of a similar example from the collection of the City of Manchester Art Galleries, which is dated at circa 1812. The similarities in modelling of the head, feet and arms should be noted as well as the Napoleonic reference. Both jugs are of a similar height, though the Manchester example is slightly smaller. John and Griselda Lewis also note that the cover probably served as a drinking cup.
