Item Details

A navette shaped snuff box made from translucent ox horn with a bright-cut gilt metal hinge and bezel enclosing a painted panel depicting a forlorn maiden with her spaniel dog.


English circa 1790.

The image, thanks to Chris Coles (BADA recommended Service Provider, researcher extraordinaire) can now be identified as Maria of Moulines from Laurence Sterne's 'A Sentimental Journey', the original work by Angelica Kauffman, exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1777, is now at Burghley House.
