A massive pair of Royal Worcester vases and covers by Harry Davis, dated 1921In traditional French style, the ovoid bodies applied with scroll handles with leaf moulded details, the necks and feet with fluted panels, the deep blue ground very richly decorated in raised-paste gilding, the scrollwork ornament including a network of caillouté enclosing urn-shaped patterae on the reverse, the full front panels painted by Harry Davis with extensive landscapes in the manner of Claude, both signed 'H Davis', 68.5cm high, printed puce marks with date codes for 1921, shape number 2454 (4)Footnotes:While an apprentice at the Royal Worcester factory, a young Harry Davis was fascinated by a book in the works library on the paintings of Claude. Davis imagined the true colouring and developed his own palate, giving Claude's landscapes his own unique atmosphere with an outstanding sense of perspective. Because of the high production cost, there were few orders for the largest size version of shape 2454. Davis would have been thrilled by the chance to create a matching pair, with two huge Claude landscapes that complement each other, framed with such splendid raised gilding. For a publicity photograph taken around 1920, Harry Davis posed next to a similar vase, proudly holding his paintbrush even though the vase had already been fired and gilded. This magnificent pair belonged to a private collection of Royal Worcester porcelain offered by Christie's on 8 November 1993. Henry Sandon had advised the collectors and in his forward to the 1993 auction catalogue, he described these vases as 'the most superb painting you can imagine by the greatest ceramic artist of this century'.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
