A very similar figure group from the collection of Mrs. Lammot du Pont Copeland is preserved in the Peabody Essex Museum, Salem (ID no. AE85857). The Copeland Collection group is illustrated by W.R. Sargent, The Copeland Collection: Chinese and Japanese Ceramic Figures, Salem, 1991, pp. 220-21, cat. no. 106, where the author suggests that these figure groups may have been enjoyed by Chinese audiences as amusing representations of "foreign barbarians".
