English: One of several known maiolica plates bearing the arms of Christell and Mair (or Mayr) of Augsburg, and was probably made either to celebrate the wedding of Christoph Christell (d. 1598) and Ursula Mair (d. 1626) on 3 March 1593, or at a later date during their marriage. There are at least seven plates known from the service: in the Wallace Collection, the Städtische Kunstsammlungen, Augsburg (ref. 7597 & 7598); the Württembergischen Landesmuseum, Stuttgart (Krongut 729¬7);the Musée des Antiquités de Rouen; the Fitzwilliam Museum collections (ref. C.227-1991); and formerly in the Richard Zschille collection.
