Remains of the day.......We remain with affection

This image is of a ceramic of an elderly couple posed in a gesture of affection and devotion in their later years. The ceramic dates to circa 1850-1860, and it appears that the couple portrayed are of Scottish heritage, noting the man's knitted cap on the chair back. It is a domestic scene with a cat sitting beneath his chair, and a dog to the left of his chair.
