Bowl (USA)
This is a bowl. It was company: Biloxi Art Pottery and ceramist: George E. Ohr. It is dated 1893–1909 and we acquired it in 1984. Its medium is painted and glazed earthenware. It is a part of the Product Design and Decorative Arts department.
Although George Ohr was fiercely independent, the ceramics of the self-titled “mad potter of Biloxi” figure as yet another unbridled outburst of the organic impulse at the turn of the twentieth century.
