Bowl 1766

This porcelain bowl, crafted in 1766 by the Robert Pottery Factory, exemplifies the elegant aesthetic of 18th-century European ceramics. The delicate, hand-painted scene of a picturesque landscape in iron-red tones, surrounded by a golden laurel wreath, showcases the mastery of the factory's artisans. This simple yet refined design, enhanced by the gilded rim, exemplifies the Rococo style's penchant for graceful ornamentation. Currently housed at the Art Institute of Chicago, the bowl is a testament to the enduring allure of fine craftsmanship and the art of porcelain.
