Description
"Silhouette" ware continues the tradition of painting with slip (liquefied clay) directly on the white body beneath the glaze. On this jug, thick black slip was applied and then carved with a knife to create the design of running animals and pseudo-script.- ?-1947(Heeramaneck Galleries, New York, NY, sold to the Cleveland Museum of Art)1947-The Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland, OH
