Royal Doulton Figurine Phyllis HN3180 Collectible and the rooftop chimney setting

and the rooftop chimney setting gives the piece a storytelling immediacy that lifts it above a straightforward standing portrait

It is a portrait of domestic contentment rendered with the unhurried warmth that defines Harradine's finest seated figures

and her relative obscurity among casual buyers makes her all the more rewarding a find for the knowledgeable collector who recognises the significance of the date range

and their distinctive red coats make them iconic British figures

St George showcases his ability to capture dramatic action with authentic medieval armor
