Re: Guy Sydenham

Guy made this wonderful pot at the end of his career,the rough carving & dull glazes signify neglect and errosion whereas the extruded chimneys are his interpretation of the sea squirt,Guy had a facination with the origins of man, the sea squirt being one of our distant cousins and is also a possible reference to regeneration?

Re: Guy Sydenham
This pitcher-kind pottery (second from above) looks like a german Bartmannskrug (man with beard pitcher). Was very popular in the 15th and 16th century
Re: Guy Sydenham
it was intentionally similar, Guy made replicas for American collectors as well as making hundreds of pots in that style.
