Fine Antique English Porcelain has dated this Regency Worcester Porcelain Urn to the Regency era.

The panels are close to the hand of Thomas Baxter. After his departure, Baxter wrote to a friend mentioning that the figure painting at Flights 'is now done by a pupil of mine named Lowe'. Thomas Lowe had been a pupil at Baxter's china painting school in Worcester and, according to Solomon Cole, Lowe went on to 'higher branches of their art afterwards'.

"The Maid of Orléans" is another name for Joan of Arc, a national heroine of France who led the French army to victory during the Hundred Years' War. She was given this title after lifting the English siege of Orléans in 1429. The panel titled ''The Maid of Orléans" shows Joan of Arc where she conjures daemons in Shakespeare Henry VI part 1. But the daemons are uncompliant, the one on the left hangs his head. Engraving C Warren 1805 after a drawing by J Thurston.
