Charming pair of antique English Staffordshire pearlware figures of the character Rolla in the melodrama Pizarro, depicting Rolla carrying to safety the infant son of the Spaniard Alonzo and his wife Inca. From the mid-1830s until the early 1900s several Staffordshire factories specialised in these moulded earthenware portrait figurines which were decorated by hand and often depicted famous characters or personalities of the time.
