It is interesting to compare the technique and composition of the shell painting with a very similar panel on a large vase attributed to John Barker in the Ewers-Tyne Collection of Worcester Porcelain at Cheekwood, see John Sandon (2008), pp 119-121. John Sandon quotes Solomon Cole from his memoirs who told William Chaffers that the artist John Barker excelled in painting shells
Literature: A pair of plates, probably from the same service are illustrated on page 90, plate 78, of Henry Sandon's 1978 book on Flight and Barr Worcester Porcelain.
