A truly superb Staffordshire portrait figure of Sir Henry Havelock, he is standing on a circular gilt lined base, his right arm across his chest, his left by his side holding a sword, wearing a tunic with epaulettes and trousers, a sash across his chest and waist. This figure is in mint condition and very desirable, the decorator has applied the overglaze enamel colour to the hair in the most skilful way, so far as to represent a combed effect. I have included a picture of a Victorian sheet music cover, titled ‘ Havelock’s Indian March’ composed by Stephen Glover (composer) and the possible source for this figure.
