拍品专文

A comparable casket is illustrated by T. and B. Hughes, English Painted Enamels, London and New York, 1951, p. 138, pl. 73. For another example see also D. Hall, The Connoisseur, 'The Raby Bequest of English Enamels', December 1960, p. 239, fig. 9. Pastoral scenes and Italian landscapes by painters such as Claude Lorrain (1604-1682) perpetuated by engravers such as Francois Vivares (1709-1780) became favourite subjects with many enamel makers and were produced in an infinite variety of groupings.
