Description

This image shows plate LXXIV (= 74). Jones’ original description of this plate from his “Description of the plates” (page 9–15), transcribed literally, using Jones’ orthography:

“From a painted china Bottle. In the upper border, which is from the neck of the bottle, the different patterns are united; but in the lower pattern, from the swell of the bottle, the compositions are entirely fragmentary, and yet so contrived that the ornament is very evenly distributed over the ground.”

Additional hints by Commons users: —

About the file format: I have added the images of the plates as individual image files, and not the complete book as a single PDF/DjVu file, because (a) the quality of the individual images is somewhat better than the quality of the images in a PDF/DjVU file, (b) for many users it is easier to use the individual image files than to extract any image from the PDF/DjVu file first, and (c) the use of individual images for the plates allows us to add special categories or other hints to any of the images, as appropriate. — The original image files on the website (see Source) are JPEG 2000 (.jp2) files, but JPEG 2000 is not a completely free file format and (therefore?!) currently not supported by Commons; saving the image files in JPEG format would have introduced some loss of quality; therefore I have converted the image files to PNG files.
