SUMMARY:Visit to Norwich
DESCRIPTION:The historic city of Norwich traces its beginnings from the Iceni and Boadicea\, via the Vikings\, the Normans and the flourishing Middle Ages to the present day. This wealth of history makes it a fascinating and interesting place to visit. Although the emphasis of our visit will be on ceramics\, there is much more to see and do. It claims to be the most complete medieval city in the United Kingdom with cobbled streets and timbered houses. By the 18C it was the second largest city after London\, with long-held bonds with the Netherlands. \nOn the afternoon of Thursday 19 May\, we will visit a private collection close to the A11 to Norwich; it has over 500 pieces of early English porcelain including Bow\, Lowestoft\, Derby and Worcester. \nThe next morning\, there will be a guided tour of the Cathedral. Founded in 1096\, it has the second highest spire after Salisbury and the largest monastic cloisters in the country. This will be followed by a light lunch at the Castle Museum before a tour and handling session with the Curator. The Museum houses the Twining Teapot Gallery\, excellent decorative arts galleries with cases of East Anglian ceramics\, including Lowestoft\, and a Chronological Arts of Living Gallery. \nOn Saturday 21 May\, we will visit the Sainsbury Centre at the University of East Anglia\, well known for its studio pottery collection including works by Hans Coper and Lucie Rie. Coffee on arrival will be followed by a conducted tour with Paul Greenhalgh\, former Director and author of Ceramics\, Art and Civilisation. Our tour will end with a buffet lunch. The Sainsbury Centre has important ethnographica and tribal art collections\, as well as works by Francis Bacon\, Henry Moore\, Jacob Epstein and Alberto Giacometti. Those who wish can visit the spring exhibition Pablo Picasso: The Legacy of Youth. \nThe cost per head is £85. Accommodation and transport are not included but recommendations will be provided. \n

SUMMARY:Visit to Magdalen College\, Oxford
DESCRIPTION:The President of Magdalen College has very generously given permission for the OCG to  visit the President’s Lodging in order to see the Brocklebank collection of Anatolian. Middle Eastern and Persian Ceramics that are displayed in the President’s Dining Room. This is a great privilege as the President’s Lodging are not normally open to the public. We will be accompanied by  John Nightingale\, Chattels Fellow\, Richard Allen\, College Archivist and Dr Francesca Leone\, Curator of Islamic Art at the Ashmolean who will be able to tell us about some of the pieces on display. \nLt. Col. Richard Hugh Royds Brocklebank (1881-1965) inherited an important collection of Islamic ceramics from is Uncle Ralph Brocklebank (1840-1921). His collection of 120 items of colourful Iznik\,  Kütahya and Persian ceramics was bequeathed to the college in 1975 by Hugh’s daughter Lady Rayleigh\, in accordance with her father’s wishes. \nOur visit will begin at 11 am with a welcome coffee and biscuits. We will then proceed to the President’s Lodgings to see the Brocklebank Collection. We will also have the opportunity to see the Brocklebank picture collection\, including watercolours by Turner and the extraordinary early 16th-century Flemish tapestries that show the betrothal of Prince Arthur to Catherine of Aragon that were presented to Richard Mayew\, President of Magdalen in 1501. Mayhew was one of the embassy sent to fetch Catherine of Aragon from Spain to be Arthur’s bride. We will also be shown the Iznik tiles on the Senior Common Room staircase which form an important part of the Brocklebank collection.  \nFollowing our visit to the President’s Lodgings and SCR\, Members will then be free to visit the college Chapel and beautiful grounds at their leisure– if we are lucky Magdalen’s famous snakehead fritillaries may still be in bloom!

SUMMARY:Study Day - Named Sculptors and Ceramics
DESCRIPTION:  \nSugar ornaments were used on fashionable dining tables all over Europe at the beginning of the 18th century. With the discovery of porcelain at Meissen in 1710\, more permanent figures could be made. Meissen developed this to a fine art with two skilled modellers Johann Jakob Kirchner and Johann Joachim Kandler.\nThe use of named sculptors in both porcelain and earthenware has continued to the present day and we are fortunate to have three acclaimed speakers to tell the story. \nErrol Manners\, porcelain expert and dealer\, will concentrate on the 18th century. \nPaul Atterbury\, author and broadcaster\, known to many from his appearances on the Antiques Road Show\, will talk on named sculptors in 19th century England\, including Parian ware and Majolica.  \nGaye Blake-Roberts\, former\, long-standing Curator of the Wedgwood Museum\, will talk about the wide range of sculptors working with Wedgwood. \nMembers are welcome to bring items for interest and / or identification. \nCoffee will be served from 10.30am and the first lecture will begin at 11.00am. A sandwich lunch is provided.
