A rare pair of Champion's Bristol figures of a shepherd and his companion c.1775, perhaps emblematic of Liberty and Matrimony, the former modelled as a young girl gathering flowers in her apron with a lamb by her side, Matrimony as her companion, holding a small bird in his left hand, each figure leaning on a tree stump behind, raised on low square bases painted with foliate scrolls, some good restoration to Liberty, 17.3cm.
