EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Dragon Dish" created by William De Morgan, a renowned artist from the late 19th to early 20th century. Crafted between 1872 and 1907, this lustred earthenware masterpiece measures approximately 5x33.5x33.5 cm and is currently housed in the Ashmolean Museum at the University of Oxford in the UK. The dish features a mesmerizing dragon motif, beautifully painted with vibrant colors that bring it to life. Dragons have long been revered as mythical creatures symbolizing power, wisdom, and protection. In this artwork, De Morgan skillfully captures their majestic presence. The intricate details on the dish highlight De Morgan's mastery of ceramic artistry. The lustre technique used enhances its visual appeal by creating an iridescent effect that adds depth and richness to the colors. As we admire this extraordinary piece of decorative art, we are transported back in time to an era when craftsmanship was highly valued. It serves as a testament to De Morgan's talent and his contribution to the world of ceramics. Ellie Atkins has captured this remarkable artwork through her lens, allowing us to appreciate its beauty even if we cannot see it firsthand at the museum. Through photography, she brings us closer to these works of art and helps preserve their legacy for future generations.
