The Maynard Dish, Paul de Lamerie  The Maynard Dish, Paul de LamerieThe Maynard Dish The extraordinary border of this dish, with figures representing Earth, Air, Fire and Water, is the first appearance of the work of the so-called 'Maynard Master', the artistic personality responsible for de Lamerie's most ambitious commissions. He was probably trained as a chaser, and modelled the original plaques in copper, from which moulds were taken to make the silver casts. This object will be on display at the V&A from 23 May 2009 onwards. |
