A Castelli maiolica plaque 18th century, Italian

in the manner of the Grue workshop, painted with Jacob and Rachel with Laban and Leah, depicted mid-conversation, a sheep and a ram between them and a river landscape beyond, plaque 18.9 x 26cm; later framed 26 x 32.9cm, Probably acquired by Cara Leyland Rogers Broughton, Baroness Fairhaven (1873-1930); thence by descent. While the style and palette of the present plaque find close parallels in Castelli maiolica, its depiction of Jacob and Laban with Leah and Rachel, taken from Genesis 31, appears to be a scarce and possibly unique example of this subject.
