I 749)\r\nThese two figures were purchased by Lady Charlotte Schreiber from De Maan, The Hague, for £15 in March 1874\r\nIn her Journals Lady Charlotte Schreiber recorded (vol. I, p. 252, March 12, 1874), 'On reaching our Hotel we found that we had just missed de Maan, who had called by appointment. He came, however, the following morning before I was out of my room. C.S. went down to see him, and presently ran back joyfully back to me bringing what de Maan was offering for sale. What was my astonishment and delight when he displayed before my bewildered eyes no less than 5 beautiful Bristol figures! viz. the boy with hurdy gurdy, a girl dancing with a triangle, the girl with dog, and a boy and girl of a model we had never seen before, he holding a bird and she some flowers. The price was not very small for Chelsea, which is what de Maan considered them to be, but it was little enough for Bristol, which they really were, and we gladly gave him the £32. to which, after a little parleying, he came. Our Bristol figures now surpass every collection. We have every known type but one (the female companion to our shepherd carrying the kid), and have three specimens hitherto unknown, viz. the two bought this morning, and the fine double group purchased of Jacob some yeast ago.","historicalContext":"","briefDescription":"Figure in porcelain, painted with enamels and gilded, of a girl playing a triangle and she dances while holding it above her left shoulder, made by Bristol porcelain factory, Bristol, ca. 1775.","bibliographicReferences":[],"production":"","productionType":{"text":"","id":""},"contentDescription":"","contentPlaces":[],"associatedPlaces":[],"contentPerson":[],"associatedPerson":[],"contentOrganisations":[],"associatedOrganisations":[],"contentPeople":[],"associatedPeople":[],"contentEvents":[],"associatedEvents":[],"contentOthers":[{"text":"girl","id":"AAT247581"},{"text":"triangles (idiophones)","id":"AAT41911"}],"contentConcepts":[],"contentLiteraryRefs":[],"galleryLabels":[],"partNumbers":["414:738/A-1885"],"accessionNumberNum":"414","accessionNumberPrefix":"","accessionYear":1885,"otherNumbers":[{"type":{"text":"Schreiber number","id":"THES50279"},"number":"Sch.
