Vase 1902

This "Vase" by Artus Van Briggle was created in 1902, just two years before the artist's untimely death in 1904. The Art Institute of Chicago currently houses this beautiful ceramic piece, a fine example of the Art Nouveau style. The vase's pink glaze and swirling, textured surface add a sense of movement and dynamism to the form, reflecting the aesthetic principles of the Arts and Crafts movement. The piece is small but exquisitely detailed, showcasing the artist's masterful skill in ceramics.
