I have a Sydenham plate by J.Clementson that has two females in the center. The border design is the same as the others posted. It's a bit odd to me in that the one female is very much larger than the other, yet looks like a young girl. She holds flowers in her lap and is gently looking downward. Half of her upper midriff is undraped, and the chest is flat, no breast. The smaller figure is looking up towards her rather devotionally, she is shown 3/4 from the back side, and her hand looks like it is clasped as if in prayer or devotion.
I can email a photo of this scene to anybody who is interested.
