This tile figurine is based on Botticelli's "The Birth of Venus," but our Venus doesn't care for water. Her worried expression, shower cap and awaiting towel give away her aquaphobia. A crafty frog peaks from the rim of the fountain, as a bird gulps down an entire fish to feed her three squawking fledglings. To the right of the tile is the word "Chilton" on a signpost with the number 57 on the gate. This is the house number and first part of the village name of the tile's master carver.
