EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking and poignant WWI commemorative jug, manufactured by Lambert Watson & Son, showcases a portrait of Field Marshal Sir John French on its main body. Sir John French (1852-1925) served as the Commander-in-Chief of the British Expeditionary Force during the early stages of the First World War. The pottery jug, produced circa 1914, is adorned with a patriotic glaze and a powerful backdrop of artillery and cavalry, symbolizing the military might and determination of the British forces during this pivotal period in history. On the reverse side of the jug, a brave cavalry trooper is depicted, adding an additional layer of depth and symbolism to the piece. The intricate details of the pottery work and the vivid colors of the glaze serve to capture the spirit of the era and the unwavering resolve of the soldiers who fought in the Great War. This commemorative ware jug, a testament to the bravery and sacrifice of the British military during WWI, is a valuable historical artifact that continues to inspire awe and respect. The image of Sir John French, a key figure in the early years of the war, serves as a reminder of the leadership and strategic planning that were essential to the Allied forces' successes and eventual victory.
