BRONZE MORTAR WITH INSCRIPTION. SPAIN, 1846.

Mortar with inscription. Bronze. Spain, 1846. Mortar made of bronze with a flared mouth and a truncated cone-shaped body that develops without discontinuity and decreases in diameter towards the base. The piece has an inscription (“soi de don Gregorio goia ano 1846”) in capital letters with spaces between them and two areas with lines flanking the text in the upper and lower areas, referring to the owner of the mortar and the year in which it was made. Compare, for example, with the large pharmacy mortar in the Municipal Museum-Archive of Calella (with an inscription, ribs and human heads as handles), a large mortar in the Museum of the Spanish Pharmacy of the Complutense University of Madrid, etc.
