His hands are grasped together in a plea the text above reads Am I not a man and a brother. Image 28 x 28 cm sheet 141 x 209 cm. Possibly a partial plate extracted from a copy of The Poetical Works of Erasmus Darwin 1806 which has a composite plate of this image beneath a Webber vignette related to Botany Bay. - The Wedgwood anti-slavery medallion was an abolitionist symbol produced and distributed by British potter and entrepreneur Josiah Wedgwood in 1787 as a seal for the Society for the Abolition of the Slave Trade. The figure was likely designed and modelled by Henry Webber and William Hackwood with Wedgwood's involvement. The medallion was produced as a jasperware cameo by Wedgwood's factory the Etruria Works and widely distributed in Britain and the United States. These cameos were worn as pendants inlaid in snuff boxes and used to adorn bracelets and hair pins rapidly becoming fashionable symbols of the British abolition movement. The medallion helped to further the abolitionist cause and is today accepted as 'the most recognizable piece of antislavery paraphernalia the movement ever produced'. - A fine small scale print. unknown
