Female Bather with Mirror
ca 1984
Stoneware; ht. 23, wd. 15.25, dp. 5 in.

Known as an "Envelope" form, this piece by Takamori is what set American ceramics alight in the 1980's. A flattened form yet also a vessel, the figure is lovingly drawn on the form and harkens back to Renoir's "The Bathers" as well as many other classical depictions of the female form in classical painting.
