EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning medallion titled "Medallion with the Sale of Cupids and a Sacrifice to Cupid" created by Josiah Wedgwood between 1778-1826. The medallion, made from jasperware, measures 3x6 cm and is housed in the Manchester Art Gallery in the UK. The photograph captures two rectangular medallions with chamfered corners, giving them an elongated octagonal shape. Both medallions feature polished bevelled edges and are adorned with gilt metal frames embellished with intricate strapwork borders. The first medallion, numbered as 1906.67/2a, depicts the Sale of Cupids and a Sacrifice to Cupid. Against a black dip background, white figures stand out depicting this mythological scene. A relief border of simple leaves separates this central image from an outer border dipped in plain sage green. The second medallion, numbered as 1906.67/2b, portrays The Devotion of Marcus Curtius - a Roman soldier on horseback leaping into a raging fire. This powerful image is rendered in white against a green dip backdrop and features an applied lilac and white border for added visual interest. Both pieces exude neoclassical charm with their elegant design elements and mythological subject matter. The combination of delicate craftsmanship, rich colors, and gold accents make these medallions true works of art that beautifully capture the essence of Georgian stoneware ceramics. This exquisite print allows us to appreciate the intricate details and beauty found within these remarkable cameo-like creations by one of history's most renowned ceramic artists – Josiah Wedgwood.
