This sherd of a tin-glazed bowl or plate appears to show someone's legs (in red), but what the scene originally was, is a mystery. If you've seen something similar, do let us know.
This artefact was donated to Bristol Museum and Art Gallery by W J Pountney following his excavation of pottery manufacturing remains at the site Chapel of St Anne in the Wood, in 1914.
