Sculpture in Porcelain Five Examples of that Beautiful and Difficult Ceramic Work Called Pate-sur-pate Lois Whitcomb Rhead is the young sculptor who created these charming figures in ceramic sculpture. Mrs. Rhead is a member of the National Association of Women Painters and Sculptors, at whose exhibit her things were shown. Altho Pate-sur-pate is one of the most difficult mediums to work in, consisting of a cutting process, similar to a cameo, thru layers of white porcelain which have been superimposed on a blue base, Mrs. Rhead has chosen to specialize in it, and the results she obtains of white bas-relief against blue are exquisite. She has studied under Conrad Dressier, Leon V. Solon and Frederick H. Rhead, who was a pupil of Taxile Doat. Taxile Doat, the famous French maker of ceramics, adopted the Patesur-pate process after it had been developed in the Royal Manufactory of Sevres. Mrs. Rhead has also exhibited at the Architectural League, The Art Institute of Chicago, and the San Francisco Museum of Fine Arts Page Forty-Seven
