Pewter fountain and basin with a scene of Saint George and the dragon
A pewter shell-shaped basin, raised on two claw feet with a scalloped rim and a straight, upright backplate with a relief scene of Saint George and the dragon, supported by two graceful scrolls. A metal rod is attached to the back, reinforcing the pewter. Above hangs an acorn-shaped water reservoir with a soldier as a valve. Three ancient (Thaler) coins hang from rings with lion heads. The spout has a dragon's head with a rotating valve shaped like an angel's head. Marked three times on the front and faded. It appears to have a German pewter mark depicting an angel in an oval circle, and the date is possibly the second half of the 18th century, given the edge of the pewter mark.
Saint George and the Dragon is a famous Christian legend in which Saint George, a Roman soldier, defeats a fearsome dragon and rescues the princess. The princess was chosen as the next sacrifice, as they had no more livestock or trinkets for the dragon. They began sacrificing a human once a day.
