Santa Anna character jug prototype - Royal Doulton 2012

Santa Anna character jug prototype produced by Royal Doulton of Burslem, England, in 2012 commissioned by UK International Ceramics intended for The Great Generals Collection. Antonio de Padua María Severino López de Santa Anna y Pérez de Lebrón (1794-1876), often known as Santa Anna, was a Mexican general, politician, and caudillo who served as the 8th president of Mexico on multiple occasions between 1833 and 1855. He also served as vice president of Mexico from 1837 to 1839. He was a controversial and pivotal figure in Mexican politics during the 19th century, to the point that he has been called an "uncrowned monarch", and historians often refer to the three decades after Mexican independence as the "Age of Santa Anna". Santa Anna was in charge of the garrison at Veracruz at the time Mexico won independence in 1821. Santa Anna's forces killed 189 Texan defenders at the Battle of the Alamo on 6 March 1836, and executed more than 342 Texan prisoners at the Goliad Massacre on 27 March 1836. A banner with the colors of the Mexican flag and Santa Anna's name forms the handle of the jug.
