As McPhee and Trendall explain (op. cit, p. 101), this plate is a part of a group "particularly close to Paestan, especially in the treatment of the octopus...with what may be called 'compressed' tentacles, since they are tightly packed around the body and not widely extended. This type is very popular on the Paestan plates associated with the Painter of Naples 1778." The authors further infer that it is possible that the Torpedo Painter himself painted this plate.
