An exhibition of British ceramics given to The Saint Louis Art Museum by Mr. and Mrs. Milton L. Zorensky is on view in the Museum’s Gallery 120 beginning May 25. Called English Ceramics: The Zorensky Collection, the exhibition includes a variety of ceramic forms from the 18th to early 20th centuries. Represented are examples of wares from the factories of Worcester, Wedgwood, Minton, and Derby, as well as other lesser-known potteries. Of special interest are a Minton Fire Screen, one of a pair made for the Duchess of Sutherland of Trentham Park, Staffordshire, an extremely rare piece, and the magnificent Chamberlain’s Worchester’ Tea Service, said to have been presented to Jenny Lind on the occasion of a concert given for the Worcester Royal Infirmary on Feb. 1, 1849.
