拍品专文

Leslie B. Grigsby, The Longridge Collection of English Slipware and Delftware, London, 2000, p. 114, no. D80 discusses a dated polychrome plate of 1686 with similar flowering plants in the border.

The use of a roebuck suggests that this plate could have been made for a member of the Leathersellers' Company in celebration of a marriage. There are several Liverymen whose initials it could represent, however, the record of a Henry Cooke who married an Elizabeth Towler on 13th July 1691 at Quarley in Hampshire seems a likely match.
