Plate, by Bill Brown

Add to album

This porcelain plate was made by the Scottish artist Bill Brown in 1982.

The large, flat pale grey plate is decorated with a seascape depicting birds, sea and rocks in blues, greens and browns.

During the 1980s the Scottish Development Agency purchased a number of hand-crafted items for its Scottish Crafts Collection. The aim of the collection was to inform the public of craft production in Scotland through touring exhibitions and education programmes. When the Scottish Craft Council was wound up, the collection was transferred to the National Museums of Scotland.
