Title

Plate with three vase design (one of five with 1964/1.100-103)

Artist

Artist Unknown, Nabeshima ware, Japan

Physical Description

A circular, smaller white porcelain plate. On the upper surface, three vases, similar in shape, are shown overlapping diagonally in blue background. The two outer vases run off the plate’s rim. They are outlined in underglaze blue and are against a painted light-blue background. The left vase is covered with a white glaze (which left unpainted) under a red key-fret design. The center vase is totally covered with a white crackle pattern done in blue underglaze line. The right vase has a design of evenly-spaced red flowers. Precise flat bases are combined with a rather awkward suggestion of a three-dimensional view of the lips. The back has a triple representation of peony buds surrounded by fine branching stems and leaves. On the shallow foot, bold lines are drawn in a row like a comb. The design on the back is all drawn with blue underglaze. (Referencce: Becker, Sister Johanna. “A Group of Nabeshima Porcelain.”)

Monumental vase

Artist

Physical Description

This is a 44.5 cm high ceramic vase. The body has an oval shape with a small rounded band as its base. The shoulder area has a rounded edge and a small flat band at the bottom of the neck. There is a short neck with a rounded, overhanging lip at the top. The vase is covered with an iridescent glaze over a semi-matt glaze that creates an appearance of irregular patches of color. It has a lilac, or lavender blue appearance. The rings of the thrown clay can be seen beneath the glaze.

La Mode élégante

Artist

V. Muchot

Physical Description

This colored engraving features what appear to be three generations of women in elaborate dress in an interior space. A young girl in a brown dress is positioned with her back to the viewer on the left of the composition. She presents an object to a woman in a blue-grey dress who is seated in the center of the composition holding a piece of paper in her right hand. A young woman in a dark and pale turquoise dress stands on the right of the composition looking down at the child. Between the two adult figures is a table decorated with a vase of pink flowers.

Floral Still Life

Artist

Hans Zatzka

Physical Description

A wide gladd vase rests upon a table partly covered by a cloth in a blue pattern. The vase contains a tall floral arrangement. Some flowed include pink, white, red and yellow roses, hydrageas, and lillies, among other flowers and greens. Floating around the flowers are three blue and white butterflies. The background behind the flower arrangement transitions from an almost black background from the left to a distant landscape scene, either through a window view or a painting.
