A mid-nineteenth-century Staffordshire pottery leopard, modelled standing atop a naturalistic mound base. The figure is decorated in a mottled glaze with stylised detailing to the coat and facial features.
Figures of exotic animals formed part of a smaller group of Staffordshire ceramic production during the nineteenth century, distinct from the more commonly encountered domestic spaniels and pastoral groups. This example reflects the simplified modelling and decorative character associated with Staffordshire pottery of the period.
