Jumping (tardily) on the #MuseumSuperBowl bandwagon with this ornate bowl engraved with a female figure, maybe the sea nymph Amphitrite, sitting on a chimera-like animal.

It was given in 1925 to Annie Warren Gill, fourth founding member of the RCN who then became RCN President in 1927.

Printed portrait of physician Cromwell Mortimer (1693 - 1752). He is pictured sitting at his desk head on hand, papers are under his elbow and books on the floor. An owl is perched on the desk holding an inkstand in its beak. Behind him stands Folly dressed as a fool reaching out to place a peacock feather on the physician's head. 
The print is titled: 
'Here Folly, Ignorance, and Pride, Combine 
To prove Him, of the true Duncean line.'

Also a bit late to the #MuseumSuperbOwl party but who doesn't want an owl study buddy?

In this 18th C satirical print physician Cromwell Mortimer is depicted as not 'as learned as he might wish'. Pictured with Folly behind him & a lovely owl acting as his inkstand.

We think it still counts and gives us a reason to share our own mess tin (that doesn't come with a diffuser)

Frank Hadfield was one of the many thousands who built the Burma Railway. He kept his bowl as reminder of his experiences in WW2 #MuseumSuperBowl #Superbowl

Loving this theme! Hope we are not too late to join in @barnsleymuseums.bsky.social.

Our #MuseumSuperBowl offer is this pewter mid-18th century bleeding bowl.

Inside are graduated lines for the physician to measure just how much blood was being taken from the patient.

Never mind the #superbowl this is what we’ve been waiting for. Yes it’s #museumsuperbowl I!

Not everything in our very old Hall is very old. This bowl is a good example:

Made in 2000 this Christening bowl/dish has the Merchant Adventurers prayer and wavy lines representing its seafaring past.

What makes this mess bowl recovered from the Mary Rose so super?

How about the fact it's 46cm wide, 18cm deep and could hold around 15 litres - that's 34 cans of beer!

They probably just filled it with beef though, for transporting it to the crew from the galley.
