Period of Josiah Wedgwood British
Not on view
Adam Duncan was with Admiral Keppel on the North Atlantic Station in 1754 and aided in capturing Havana in 1762.
Cameo medallions with portrait reliefs were made by Josiah Wedgwood between 1765 and 1795, with Thomas Bentley as his partner from 1769 to 1780. Black basalt and jasper are both types of fine stoneware hard enough for the delicate modeling which distinguishes Wedgwood's portrait cameos of "Illustious Ancents and Moderns."
