Royal Doulton Old English Scenes The Gleaners Jug

A Royal Doulton seriesware jug from the Old English Scenes series, decorated with The Gleaners. On one side, a countrywoman in a white cap and apron stands with a sheaf of corn under her arm while a man in a tricorn hat and red coat kneels at her feet among the stubble. On the other, a young woman in a bonnet and dark shawl carries a bundle of gleaned wheat through the field. Overhanging branches of leaves and blossom frame both scenes, set on a soft yellow ground that warms to amber at the base. The square shape has a shaped rim, a scroll moulding below the spout and a dark green handle.
