Rectangular earthenware green tile with relief scene of man on a galloping horse, right side with man facing front. He wears a curly wig, cloak and skirt, and carries a scroll in his right hand, with an "I" inscribed above, and trees and foliage beneath. Unglazed sides, back.
functional; decorative
lead-glazed
Image of a horseman, possibly William of Orange (William III of England) (1650–1702), dressed in noble clothing, wearing a long curling wig from the seventeenth-century Stuart era, and holding a baton in one hand. The letter "I" inscribed behind his head probably means “imperator,” which indicates the rider is royalty. This image bears a strong resemblance to portraits by Jan Wyck (1652–1700), who painted William at the Battle of the Boyne (1690), where he conquered James II, his rival for the throne of England.
