This panel, depicting the 12 months of the year, is from Trehane in Probus. The house, probably the finest example of the Queen Anne period in Cornwall, was burnt down. It possessed very good Italian plaster work and it is possible that the panel was executed by the same craftsmen at the beginning of the 18th century.
