Note: This rare figure of Kitty Clive dressed as Mrs. Riot from David Garrick's farce 'Lethe', Clive appeared in this role in 1749 at Drury Lane. The figure is modelled after a mezzotint by Charles Mosley after a drawing by Thomas Worlidge published in 1750 and is considered one of the earliest full length portrait figures in English porcelain. Kitty Clive spent her later years living on Horace Walpole's Strawberry Hill estate.
