Woodford recently acquired this Chinese export porcelain saucer and tea bowl, circa 1780. The cup and saucer depict a man on ladder tossing cherries into skirt of woman waiting below. The image is based on an engraving by Nicolas Ponce (French, 1746-1831), after a painting by Pierre-Antoine Baudouin (1723-1769). (fb)
In the late 1920s, architect John Sinkler was hired to make Woodford suitable for display as a house museum. As part of his project, he turned a small closet in the parlor into a bookshelf. Conservator Jonathan Stevens’s work to convert the closet back into its period-appropriate form as a “bow-fat” was completed in May 2025. Learn more about his work tomorrow, June 25, at 12 pm for a zoom lunch and learn. Link in bio to register! (fb)
