Previously unrecorded Derby figure No. 79, modelled after a Continental original, with a gentleman in a turquoise frock coat and stockings, engaging a seated lady in conversation, she wears a pink gown with floral undergowns and sits in an elaborate chair, with an urn on pedestal applied with a bachus mask to the rear, on an asymmetric base applied with flowers.
Circa 1770

References: This figure is most certainly Derby, but does not appear in Bradshaw’s book ‘Derby Figures’ (where he reproduces the 1772-96 figure list and documents all known examples). There are however a series of very similar figures, beginning at No. 73 - a Pastora
