Don Pottery - Named Italian Views


A lovely Don Pottery series of views of the 'Two Sicilies' - the island itself and the area around Naples and Vesuvius on the mainland. The views of ancient buildings and monuments each bear a title in script and the border has a distinctive pair of putti emerging from ornate flowers on a stippled ground. Featured is a fine plate with a view of the 'Monastery at Tre Castagne'. For more details see my website Premier Antiques
