Vase with flaring rim
Date1967
Maker
Yanagihara Mutsuo
Japanese, born 1934
Label TextThis piece typifies the work Yanagihara produced when he first came to the University of Washington as a ceramics instructor in 1966. Its simple shape and sinuous, organic form recall the traditional clay vessels of early Japan, presenting a beautiful contrast to the more innovative work for which Yanagihara has earned his reputation.
