William Lautz, the Seattle Ceramic Society, and the Seattle Art Museum

The Bullitt Library at the Seattle Art Museum holds a collection of photographic and documentary materials related to gallerist/dealer William Lautz, the Seattle Ceramic Society, and the porcelain collections of the Seattle Art Museum. Little is known about Lautz and the Seattle Ceramic Society. Further, little about this period of collecting at SAM is accessible for scholarly purposes. This collection, which will grow over time, provides exciting new research opportunities.
