Antique Questions Forum / Cornwallis and Washington?

« on: June 24, 2004, 10:29:45 am »

A few years ago a friend gave me a wash bowl with a pitcher.  I cannot find any dates on  either piece.  However, my friend did purchase some antiques at shows, and others from markets.  This pitcher and bowl do match, I think.  The bowl is cream in color with gold painting around the edges and has four circular pictures in the bowl.  They are: "Surrender of Cornwallis, and under it is written John Trumbull".  The pitcher is about 12 inches tall with the same gold-tone trim with waved indented features around the neck of the pitcher.  The picture on the front:  "Washington Crossing the Delaware, and under it Emmanuel Leuhe or Leuke". (not sure of that?)
 
Can you offer me any information?  Value of this? I have tried to look this up on line, however am not sure where to search.  Thanks for your help.
