For a discussion of this group of vases and pharmacy jars, and their attribution to Naples, see Julia E. Poole, Italian maiolica and incised slipware in the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge, Cambridge, 1995, p. 432, no. 463, where a vase bearing a profile portrait and very similar foliate decoration to the reverse is illustrated.
