Derby Porcelain Dessert Plate Named Landscape View River Arno Italy

A fine Derby porcelain dessert plate very finely painted in the style of George Robertson; a beautiful view of figures in a country landscape with a rowing boat on a river in the middle distance, a fine viaduct behind with a couple passing along the top, and mountains fading into the distance. The outer edge of the plate has a salmon coloured ground and an ornate stylised gilt pattern. Red painted mark to the reverse and the title "On The River Arno, Italy" in red script, also the gilder number 20 inside the foot rim. c.1815.
