American Toby Jug Museum 

Schubert character jug modeled by Stanley J. Taylor and produced by Royal Doulton of Burslem, England, between 1997-2001. Franz Peter Schubert (1797-1828) was an Austrian composer of the late Classical and early Romantic eras. Despite his short life, Schubert left behind a vast oeuvre, including more than 600 secular vocal works, seven complete symphonies, sacred music, operas, incidental music, and a large body of piano and chamber music. Appreciation of Schubert's music while he was alive was limited to a relatively small circle of admirers in Vienna, but interest in his work increased greatly in the decades following his death. Leading 19th-century composers discovered and championed his works. Today, Schubert is ranked among the greatest composers in the history of Western classical music and his work continues to be admired and widely performed. A music stand with the score to "Cradle Song" forms the handle of the jug. Several colorways are known to exist.
