$678.00

Rare Vintage Susana Espinosa Glazed Pottery Plate with Face Motif, Circa 1976. This shallow plate is an early work by the artist designed around a central face motif rendered in tones of rust, blue, green and white. The surface design is created by carving away sections of the glaze before firing to offer a multi-dimensional and textured look. Espinosa’s signature can be found on the lower left of the piece, dated 1976. Style number details are also incised on the reverse as well as “PR”, noting that it was produced in Puerto Rico. Designed to be hung on a wall or displayed rather than for utilitarian use (plate holder for hanging included).

Ceramicist and draftswoman, Espinosa currently lives and works in Puerto Rico, well known for her countless ceramic mural commissions around the island. Espinosa is reputably Puerto Rico’s most important Modernist potter. She has belonged to the International Academy of Ceramics since 1989 and her work has won medals and honorable mentions at many international events. Her work is part of the Museum of Contemporary Art of Puerto Rico, Museum of Latin American Art, among many others.

Condition: Excellent vintage condition. No flaws.

Specs: 8 1/4” H, 8” W, 1” D
