Of elongated oval plan with curved slides, rising higher at one end than the other, so that the rim slopes downwards in a gentle curve on one side then then slightly upwards on the other. The exterior is very dark grey, the surface decorated with evenly spaced eroded lines which echo the curvature of the rim, giving the illusion of an inverted V-shap on each side. The interior has a rough off-white surface marked with crack-like grey lines and dark grey spots formed by the raku process. The underside is rounded with the surface colour and pattern continuing underneath. 8 reference exhibition-1413 adlib-exhibition-1413 3b7334e1-1cbd-388e-837c-bfb6e2121fa7 David Roberts, New Ceramics C.3-1999 1 accession number C.3-1999 28512 priref 28512 1999 1999 1999 Fitzwilliam Museum entry form number 104 uri https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/28512 https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/28512 the D smaller than R, in impressed approximately circular seal base impressed DR signature reference agent-149638 adlib-agent-149638 7376d833-d0a7-3be0-916e-9c892b7a24d8 The Fitzwilliam Museum Gift of Nicholas and Judith Goodison through the National Art Collections Fund. reference agent-156032 adlib-agent-156032 3aded83c-6f5c-39b8-a50c-07f712e01b2c Goodison, Nicholas and Judith 1999 1999 1999-01-18 given The National Art Collections Fund changed its name to The Art Fund 1998 CE 1998 1998 production reference agent-156345 adlib-agent-156345 da96b803-e5dd-3d2a-a5cd-f74ddbea3830 Roberts, David (b.1947) David Roberts (b.1947) has an international reputation as a leading practitioner in raku ceramics. He became a full-time potter in 1981, following a decade as an art teacher, and now lives and works at Holmfirth, West Yorkshire. His large vessels are coil built, generally using a clay mix of 'T' material and porcelain. He abandoned glazing in the early 1990s and creates his surface effects through smoke generated by the raku firing process, aided by slips and resists. Text from object entry in A. Game (2016) ‘Contemporary British Crafts: The Goodison Gift to the Fitzwilliam Museum’. London: Philip Wilson Publishers: This second work by David Roberts shows the artist’s growing interest in creating rock-like striations or textures on the surface of his vessels through carving into the surfaces prior to firing. Roberts’ increasing response to land forms in his work is explored in art historian Lynne Green’s 2000 monograph Painting with Smoke: David Roberts – Raku Potter, which was reissued in 2009. This is one of a series of vessels in which Roberts explores ‘the many colours I believe to be found in BLACK’ and how shapes and surface can represent and echo the movement and pattern of water as it waves, ripples and eddies. The external lines are formed by eroding strips of the clay with water, at the bone-dry stage. This causes a different take-up of smoke in the raku process, resulting in the two-tone effect. Roberts is widely acknowledged as responsible for introducing modern large-scale raku in Europe. reference term-109890 adlib-term-109890 825251c2-9904-34be-b6ab-c855347f2247 20th Century, Late reference term-107700 adlib-term-107700 8f5360fb-b262-3ae9-8942-b81cc0e3e848 Elizabeth II reference term-110036 adlib-term-110036 e49f4195-4903-3af3-8da9-39fa2da41960 literal England England country Holmfirth clay mix reference term-134755 adlib-term-134755 65e91e65-a377-3e64-8800-c90b550a49a8 'T' material clay mix reference term-37642 adlib-term-37642 8f36efe3-4fe1-3da2-9944-000db5687ad7 porcelain Height cm 28.5 Length cm 35 reference media-196759 adlib-media-196759 7f38cd07-787d-3b0f-9566-ff2b5fcdbcc6 jpeg aa/aa33/large_C_3_1999_1_201505_jas244_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 768 width pixels 1024 1702926340817 1 image jpeg aa/aa33/mid_C_3_1999_1_201505_jas244_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 375 width pixels 500 1702926340817 1 image jpeg aa/aa33/C_3_1999_1_201505_jas244_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 769 width pixels 1025 1702926340817 1 image jpeg aa/aa33/preview_C_3_1999_1_201505_jas244_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 188 width pixels 250 1702926340817 1 image 0 media image reference media-196920 adlib-media-196920 7823e20c-b88b-3d16-8df5-66008c4ffa11 jpeg aa/aa34/large_C_3_1999_2_201505_jas244_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 768 width pixels 1024 1702926493665 1 image jpeg aa/aa34/mid_C_3_1999_2_201505_jas244_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 375 width pixels 500 1702926493665 1 image jpeg aa/aa34/C_3_1999_2_201505_jas244_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 769 width pixels 1025 1702926493665 1 image jpeg aa/aa34/preview_C_3_1999_2_201505_jas244_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 188 width pixels 250 1702926493665 1 image 1 media image reference media-196921 adlib-media-196921 fc6fb5b3-b165-32f9-a252-43ab35263a86 jpeg aa/aa34/large_C_3_1999_3_201505_jas244_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 768 width pixels 1024 1702926597683 1 image jpeg aa/aa34/mid_C_3_1999_3_201505_jas244_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 375 width pixels 500 1702926597683 1 image jpeg aa/aa34/C_3_1999_3_201505_jas244_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 769 width pixels 1025 1702926597683 1 image jpeg aa/aa34/preview_C_3_1999_3_201505_jas244_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 188 width pixels 250 1702926597683 1 image 2 media image reference media-196922 adlib-media-196922 385c0be2-92b9-3299-a003-ec416bab8804 jpeg aa/aa34/large_C_3_1999_4_201505_jas244_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 768 width pixels 1024 1702926592366 1 image jpeg aa/aa34/mid_C_3_1999_4_201505_jas244_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 375 width pixels 500 1702926592366 1 image jpeg aa/aa34/C_3_1999_4_201505_jas244_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 769 width pixels 1025 1702926592366 1 image jpeg aa/aa34/preview_C_3_1999_4_201505_jas244_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 188 width pixels 250 1702926592366 1 image 3 media image reference media-196923 adlib-media-196923 2f2e9be8-b8be-3324-a05f-7199f2ac3e11 jpeg aa/aa34/large_C_3_1999_5_201505_jas244_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 768 width pixels 1024 1702926444494 1 image jpeg aa/aa34/mid_C_3_1999_5_201505_jas244_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 375 width pixels 500 1702926444494 1 image jpeg aa/aa34/C_3_1999_5_201505_jas244_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 769 width pixels 1025 1702926444494 1 image jpeg aa/aa34/preview_C_3_1999_5_201505_jas244_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 188 width pixels 250 1702926444494 1 image 4 media image reference media-196924 adlib-media-196924 57ad50ec-cf73-3e35-a790-1023d506e6f6 jpeg aa/aa34/large_C_3_1999_6_201505_jas244_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 768 width pixels 1024 1702926493089 1 image jpeg aa/aa34/mid_C_3_1999_6_201505_jas244_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 375 width pixels 500 1702926493089 1 image jpeg aa/aa34/C_3_1999_6_201505_jas244_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 769 width pixels 1025 1702926493089 1 image jpeg aa/aa34/preview_C_3_1999_6_201505_jas244_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 188 width pixels 250 1702926493089 1 image 5 media image reference media-196925 adlib-media-196925 f26e08f1-4752-33ce-9d94-7cb201d669f4 jpeg aa/aa34/large_C_3_1999_7_201505_jas244_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 768 width pixels 1024 1702926628584 1 image jpeg aa/aa34/mid_C_3_1999_7_201505_jas244_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 375 width pixels 500 1702926628584 1 image jpeg aa/aa34/C_3_1999_7_201505_jas244_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 769 width pixels 1025 1702926628584 1 image jpeg aa/aa34/preview_C_3_1999_7_201505_jas244_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 188 width pixels 250 1702926628584 1 image 6 media image reference term-89198 adlib-term-89198 9b93ca03-061f-3c1c-a79f-707511cc4791 vessel reference term-107667 adlib-term-107667 1b81c806-cfb7-3291-9803-525db5f75e09 bowl history note Purchased by the donors at Hart Gallery, 113 Upper Islington, London, N1 1QN 1 reference object-209481 adlib-object-209481 55f4fb3c-793d-3f9a-a01d-51696743bd6b
