Known as glazed earthenware or stoneware, these two bowls are Italian c1900 originally from Naples but they mirror the pair in the Pantry painting which are found in Erddig Country House, Wales. This type of bowl has been produced and used throughout Europe since at least Roman times and is a shape and form that is ingrained into our psyche. A delight to observe, use and touch. Oil and gesso on board in antique frame. 54.5 x 70 cm (69 x 85 cm including frame) Find this work at Ffin Y Parc Gallery, Llanrwst, Wales until August 30th 2014.
