WILLIAM JOHNSTON’S DERBY with Robyn Ives

Tuesday 30 Aug 2011, 10:15 AM – 11:45 AM

William Johnston loved flowers, a love visible in his collection of Derby porcelain. Urns swathed in floral garlands, picturesque landscapes, roses in bud and full bloom, all exquisitely hand-painted. Join Robyn Ives to explore William Johnston’s Derby and begin to understand his fascination for it.

ROBYN IVES is a collector with a particular interest in Post Medieval English pottery (including Wedgwood), and a lecturer on English ceramics from the 17th to the 20th century.
