A Nantgarw plate painted with a very similar scene by J Plant at the Sims workshop in London is in the Victoria and Albert Museum and is illustrated by Oliver Fairclough, The London China Trade 1800-1830, ECC Trans., Vol.16., Pt.2,.p.210. The same scene is found on a plate from the Ongley Service, suggesting that identical subjects we in use on that service and the set of which the present lot forms part. The distinctive border is also copied from a London-decorated Nantgarw plate, see the example sold by Bonhams on 3 November 2016, lot 282.
