The first book on the Compton Potteries Guild and its founder Mary Seton Watts, wife of the celebrated Victorian artist G.F. Watts.
Les informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.
Hilary Calvert's interest in The Potters' Arts Guild started with a chance visit to the Watts Gallery in 1988, when the then Curator showed her pottery as well as pictures. Having previously written a book on 'Chameleon Ware Art Pottery', this was another opportunity for research which soon led to a collection of Compton pottery and ultimately to the publication of this book.
Louise Boreham has been researching the Compton and Aldourie Potteries since 1980. She has contributed to books and published articles on architectural sculpture and ceramics, lectured to specialist interest groups and taken part in radio and television broadcasts on the subject.
