Wedgwood Museum

We ended up at the new Wedgwood Museum out at Barlaston:  hard to get to and in a brand new building cum visitor centre, but beautifully displayed and unexpectedly informative about Wedgwood’s origins, his relationship to his wife Sarah, the influence of his father-in-law, his development of Queen’s Ware at the Ivy House Works, and his meeting and working partnership with Thomas Bentley.   I only had time to photograph the portrait of Bentley attributed to John Francis Rigaud:-
