Bernard Leach


Bernard Leach was a British potter and art teacher. He is known as the "Father of British studio pottery". The piece I chose from Leach is called "Lidded Pot" which was made in 1935. This one stood out to me because of all the texture and detail in it. In ceramics, you don't see too many pieces by artists that have a lid on them either, and he put a lot of detail into just the lid alone. The texture in the pot makes it look like waves and on top of the texture, there was a lot of design elements that make this piece unique.
