Description

Dish
This dish, purchased from Dikran Kelekian in 1908, has a greenish-white crackled glaze, with large areas of partial disintegration and a brilliant silver iridescence. Its black and blue under glaze is similarly degraded. An example of Raqqa ware from thirteenth or fourteenth-century Syria, the complex chromatic variations resonated with the blue, green, and gold decorations of Whistler's Peacock Room.

Date

13th-14th century

Description

Dish
The Peacock Room, originally the dining room in the home of Frederick R. Leyland, was intended to showcase its owner's extensive collection of Chinese blue-and -white porcelain. Among his 300-plus pieces were examples similar to this vessel. Known as Kangxi ware, these pots were produced in the Jingdezhen region during the Kangxi reign (1662-1722). They became so popular with Victorian consumers that the press mockingly dubbed the craze "Chinamania." <p>When Charles Lang Freer purchased the Peacock Room in London in 1904, it had already been emptied of its blue-and-white porcelains. Freer, in any case, did not care for their slick surfaces and bright glazes. Beginning in the 1980s, the Freer Gallery of Art began to acquire blue-and-whites for display in the Peacock Room, in an effort to evoke the chromatic relationships and pictorial patterns that inspired Whistler and his contemporaries.
