Description: | Earthenware mess plate, transfer-printed in blue with a central circle enclosing a foul anchor and 'MESS No 22'. The border is printed with four scenes representing the four seasons: ice skating on a frozen lake with mountains in the background; dancing around a maypole; raking hay; and reaping the harvest. The scenes have an outer broder of roses. Before 1907 naval messes had to buy their own crockery and such items were manufactured for this market. | Publisher: | "http://collections.rmg.co.uk/" | Rights holder: | "Royal Museums Greenwich" | Subjects: | plates (dishes) Royal Navy | Source: | Royal Museums Greenwich | Identifier: | http://collections.rmg.co.uk/collections... | Go to resource |
