Rudolph Drach’s “Plate” is a ceramic artwork from 1792. The plate is decorated with an inscription, a bird, and a variety of stylized flora. It was likely made for personal use as a display item in the home. Though its dimensions are small, it is a striking example of Drach’s masterful skill in ceramic artistry. “Plate” is currently on display at The Art Institute of Chicago.
