Description: | CRE UNKNOWN; (17-18th century) This is a Japanese bowl from the Arita Kiln (17th/early 18th century). It is one of a set of two. Both have lids and are decorated with kirins on the lid and bowl exterior. This may be "two blue and white bowls, with three dragons on the lids" on Whistler's list (p.3). This item is part of the collection of over 330 pieces of Chinese ceramics and approximately 15 items of Japanese ceramics from the estate of James McNeill Whistler, gifted and bequeathed by the artist's sister-in-law, Miss Rosalind Birnie Philip (1873-1958), in 1935 and 1958.
