Portrait of Davenport

Davenport is an Impressionism artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

This potter shaped everyday objects—pitchers and plates—from the 1800s using earthenware and printed patterns. Their 1857 pitcher shows rich, glossy glaze, while a plate from the 1820s–60s carries delicate floral designs pressed right into the clay. Look closer: the prints copy popular prints of the time, making art part of the dinner table. Tap the Untitled print from the late 1700s to see how their work bridges plates and paper.
