I decided to repost this post in honor of the stop motion genius Mr. Harryhausen. I grew up watching his movies and never got tired of them. His movies were the few that my entire family could agree to watch together…lol.

Hand-coiled clay, silicate color

Edwin E. Jack Fund, 2011.2Artist Eva Hild hand shaped this ceramic piece, deliberately creating a form that seems to have a continuous flow between inside and outside. There is no beginning or end to its structure, allowing the eye to weave in and out along the wave-like form. The fluidity of the piece is emphasized further by Hild’s conscious use of negative space and monochrome palate.

Pretty medieval manuscript of the day is a magnificent knight! This lovely Italian manuscript was almost certainly made for the King of Naples, and presented to him around 1335-40. The illuminator was a Florentine master called Pacino di Buonaguida.
