See A. Caròla-Perrotti, Ibid., p. 127, no. 70 where the author compares the teabowl and saucer to a service in the Victoria and Albert Museum which is painted with classical soldiers on each of the pieces (rather than soldiers in 18th century dress, as in the case of the saucer in the present lot) and with very similar gilt borders. A coffee-pot and cover and teapot and cover from the service in the Victoria and Albert Museum service are illustrated by Arthur Lane, Italian Porcelain, London, 1954, pl. 66 and 67 c.
