A comparative example to the first, depicting Bacchus and Ceres can be seen in the Victoria and Albert Museum, No. C.2311-1910. Another of the same design is in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, No. 17.190.2048. For an example depicting Venus and Mars, see Hugo Morley-Fletcher and Roger McIlroy, Christie's Pictorial History of European Pottery, (London, 1984), p. 176, pl. 2.
