| Britannia Standard (958) Height: 5 cm Diameter: 7.2 cm A similar beaker is illustrated in my book 'British Designer Silver' - while researching Michael Lloyd's work he told me: 'These are from my Rousseau period' (referring to Henri Rousseau the French post-impressionist painter in the primitive manner). ' I could be very critical, but a craftsman should not dismiss his early work. I was finding a way to communicate and wouldn't do shapes. However, the piece does show enthusiasm which may be lost in my later work.' Michael Lloyd was born in 1950 and studied at the Royal College of Art under Robert Goodden and Gerald Benney. His graduation show featured a series of hand chased bowls - the V&A Museum bought all of them. Initially working and living on a canal barge, he now lives in Scotland. At a one man show at Goldsmiths' Hall in 1997 he showed new work, plus items he had made loaned by Gerald Benney, Rod Kelly and Malcolm Appleby. |
