Description: | Yellow-glazed earthenware mug, with a moulded base. The mug is transfer-printed in black with a portrait of Vice-Admiral Horatio Nelson (1758-1805) in an octagonal lozenge surmounted by a coronet, over it the inscription 'TRAFALGAR'. Above the portrait, the winged figure of fame is shown blowing a trumpet and on either side are flags. Below is a verse: 'The Britain mourns what else can Britains do/While bleeding Nelson rises to her view/Still is there cause for Triumph when she shews/The captured colours of our Vanquish'd foes/And greater still when Fame was heard to say/All all was Nelsons on that glorious day'. | Publisher: | "http://collections.rmg.co.uk/" | Subjects: | Horatio Nelson mugs | Source: | Royal Museums Greenwich | Identifier: | http://collections.rmg.co.uk/collections... | Go to resource |
