Plate of tin-glazed earthenware, painted in the middle with a figure of St George, after the statue by Donatello formerly in a niche in the Church of Orto San Michele, Florence. In the form of a 16th century bacile. In the middle is St George, bare-headed in Roman armour with a cloak over his left shoulder, his left hand resting on the top of a kite-shaped shield, a dagger in his right, standing near a rocky eminence in a landscape with the sea in the distance. On the rim is a repeating symmetrical design of vases flanked by half-figures of boys blowing trumpets, alternating with pairs of grotesque winged monsters in reserve on a dark blue ground. The lower side of the rim is painted in yellow lustre with ryas in four groups separated by scrolled foliage.
