Nineteenth-century English ceramic art
Nineteenth-century English ceramic art by J. F. Blacker, published in London in 1912, a survey of pottery and its makers, drawn from the Smithsonian Libraries collection. The pictures are plain black-and-white plates of vessels, with one sheet of covered urns and compotes in an ornate scroll-based style and others of shaped vases, jugs, and tea and dinner wares grouped as studio photographs, offering a designer reference for Victorian ceramic silhouettes, handles, lids, and pedestal bases.
