- Lot Description
Rookwood Pottery Vase by William Ernst Hentschel (1892-1962) dated 1926. Signed, numbered, and dated on base. A striking and quite sizable glazed ceramic vase decorated with blooming pink flowers - all outlined in cobalt blue and embellished with lustrous layers of emerald green glaze with bands of cobalt framing the floral imagery at the upper and lower ends. The vessel is marked with the Rookwood logo (a back-to-back "R" and "P" surrounded by flames) on the base, "XXVI" to indicate the date 1926, identifying shape number "1095 A", and a "WEH" (William Ernst Hentschel) artist's mark. A stunning glazed ceramic vase by Rookwood artist William Hentschel that reflects the zeitgeist for organic motifs during the Arts and Crafts Movement! Size: 6.75" in diameter x 17.3" H (17.1 cm x 43.9 cm)
The Rookwood Pottery Company was founded in 1880 by the artist Maria Longworth-Nichols who created a world-renowned ceramic studio in Cincinnati, Ohio that attracted many reputable artists and ceramicists. Born in New York on June 16, 1892 William Ernst Hentschel studied art at the Art Students League and Columbia University in New York City, the University of Kentucky, as well as the Cincinnati Art Academy. Hentschel worked as designer at Rookwood Pottery from 1913 until 1932, creating both incised and molded pieces. He also taught at the Cincinnati Art Academy from 1921 until 1957 and developed his own printmaking technique (aquetone) in 1928 in which he used an airbrush with numerous stencils. Hentschel's artwork was exhibited at the Closson Gallery (1929), Roullier's Gallery in Chicago (1930), the Traxel Galleries in Cincinnati (early 1930s), and the Cincinnati Art Museum (1932).
