The overall composition of this mug is clearly inspired by Meissen and is an example of the earliest use of a coloured ground at Worcester. The finely executed landscapes are reminiscent of the 'Romantic Rocks' and other patterns painted in underglaze blue, but the puce overglaze painting allows for much more intricate detail. A pair of similar mugs from the Lady Charlotte Schreiber Collection is in the Victoria & Albert Museum (inv. no. 414:576-1885) and another from the Klesper Collection is illustrated by Simon Spero, , 1984, p. 90, no. 94 and col. pl. 27. See also the example from the Ralph Kenber Collection sold by Bonhams on 15 December 2020, lot 185.
