1868 Conventional Jones Owen Porcelain
EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite porcelain piece, titled "Owen Jones Chinese 62," is a stunning example of the intricate and ornate decorative arts that flourished during the late 19th century. Painted in the traditional Chinese style, the piece features a lush arrangement of vibrant orange and pink flowers and lush foliage, rendered with meticulous attention to detail. Owen Jones (1809-1874) was a British architect, designer, and writer, renowned for his innovative designs and contributions to the decorative arts. This particular piece, created in 1868, showcases his mastery of the Chinese style, which he studied extensively during his travels to the Far East. The porcelain itself is a testament to the advanced techniques and craftsmanship of the time. The smooth, white surface is adorned with intricate brushwork, depicting delicate blossoms and lush fruit, each one rendered with a level of detail that brings the scene to life. The vibrant colors, achieved through the use of mineral pigments, are rich and vivid, adding to the overall beauty and allure of the piece. The historical significance of "Owen Jones Chinese 62" lies not only in its artistic merit but also in its representation of the cultural exchange and cross-pollination of ideas that characterized the late 19th century. The piece reflects the growing interest in Eastern art and culture in Europe, as well as the increasing sophistication and global reach of European decorative arts. Today, "Owen Jones Chinese 62" serves as a reminder of the rich artistic heritage of the past and the enduring beauty and allure of traditional Chinese art. Its intricate details and vibrant colors continue to captivate and inspire, making it a treasured addition to any collection of decorative arts or historical artifacts.
