  • About

    As well as domestic ware, Anne Dangar also produced a number of ceramics specifically for exhibition, often based on designs by her great mentor, Albert Gleizes. Many of these can be identified by the inscription MSGD, combining their names (Moly-Sabata Dangar Gleizes). 'Virgin with child surrounded by angels' is one of Dangar's best-known designs adapted from Gleizes.
