| Description |
With lively humor and a few deft touches, the
potter has given this carrying vessel the distinct
personality of an alert and graceful animal. Its
abstract lines raise it to the level of sculpture,
transcending the merely functional and giving it
a timeless appeal. When we delight in its charm,
we share that feeling with long-forgotten
ancient lives.
