Statuette
- Description
- Raphael is part of a range of statuettes of figures and animals produced in the last quarter of the 19th century by the Torquay Terra-Cotta Company. Following the discovery of terracotta clay in the grounds of Watcombe House in 1865, two local firms arose, competing in the same market of high quality terracotta decorative art.
