> DESCRIPTION

Blue and White: A Ceramic Journey, located in the William Sharpless
Jackson Jr. Gallery on level five of the North Building, conveys the
popularity of blue-and-white pottery throughout the centuries in different
parts of the world. The technique of creating blue-and-white ceramics
was a great innovation of Chinese ceramic history and they became a
vital component of China’s export trade. The exhibit will feature objects
from early periods of blue-and-white ceramic production to present day
examples.
