1 comments about The Potter's Art.

1. The Potter's Art: A Complete History Of Pottery In Britain by Garth Clark (founder of the Institute for Ceramic History and director of a New York and a Los Angeles gallery specializing in modern and contemporary ceramic art) is an impressively illustrated (219 color, 100 b/w illustrations) and meticulously informative history of British ceramics organized into four major sections: The Peasant Potter (The Archaic Tradition; From Neolithic to Modern Times); The Industrial Potter; The Artist-Potter; and The Studio Potter. Nicely enhanced with Notes; an extensive Bibliography for further studies; a Chronology; a Glossary; and an Index, The Potter's Art is an especially recommended selection choice for personal and professional reading lists, as well as academic, and community library Art History collections.

5 comments about Head Vases, Identification and Values (Identification & Values (Collector Books)).

1. The pictures were very nice but it is not easy to find your head vase by maker or number; you have to look through entire book. Not all makers represented. Disappointed overall.



2. Although this headvase book is not as comprehensive as some of its peers, the collection is vast, displaying a wide variety of headvases, particularly some rare finds which you would not see elsewhere. Excellent companion to the Barron collection !



3. Great book..Swift and smooth transaction and packed well.



4. There is no other way to find out about head vases except to refer to Kathleen Cole's book. This outstanding book is a MUST for collectors, (buyers and sellers) of head vases. It clearly presents information and pictures about unique and collectible head vases. As a buyer of head vases, I would not be without my Kathleen Cole book. Highly recommended source of valuable information!



5. I own this book and with having over 500 headvases it sure is handy! Strictly a pictorial book and a handy check-off list to see which head vases you're missing and need to acquire. With price guide in back you are able to judge what the piece is worth or what you are willing to pay. :) Enjoy!

1. A great little book for any coffee table. If you have any interest in Sister Wendy, or porcelain figurines, or Muses, this is the book for you. Sister Wendy brings her charm and artistic experiance to this little book. The photos are splendid and in full color high quality color plates. For the price, you wont find a more inspiring art book for your favorite coffee table.
