Exhibition 'Stories on the Mantelpiece - Victorian Religious Figures' in The Potteries Museum and Art Gallery
In the 19th century the Staffordshire potters produced many figures of religious subjects, from preachers to biblical scenes from the Old and New Testaments. This display, drawn from a private collection and the museum’s own pieces examines the rise of these popular figures in the Victorian period.
