"Pink Doves, " Rare Pair of Midcentury Ceramic Sculptures by Waylande Gregory
About the Item
Glazed in a deep pink color overlaid by an elaborate pattern of markings in black and gold, this pair of ceramic doves was sculpted and glazed by Waylande Gregory, one of America's 20th century greatest sculptors in clay and metal. Gregory was a renowned WPA sculptor and innovative ceramicist and produced a wide range of sculptures and wares in ceramic beginning in his college days, through his years working with Lorado Taft and later when he created large multi-figure pieces for WPA projects, institutions and public parks. A major retrospective of Gregory's work was recently organized by the University of Richmond's Museums.
