Chinese, Corean and Japanese potteries; descriptive catalogue of loan exhibition of selected examples
A 1914 exhibition catalogue published in New York by the Japan Society, with text by R. L. Hobson, Edward S. Morse and Rose Sickler Williams, describing a loan show of selected Chinese, Korean and Japanese pottery for collectors and museum audiences. Its plates are grey halftone photographs of single vases set in pairs or stacks on pale ground, rotated sideways on the page, showing glaze sheen, painted floral panels and sculpted handles that a designer could borrow for ceramic silhouettes and vessel shapes.
