Lot 95


Signed on the back and bottom M. Rogers. Southern folk pottery was largely a patriarchal tradition, with fathers passing the skill along to their sons. Up until well into the 20th century, Southern women folk potters were few and far between. Marie Gooden Rogers was a notable exception who took face jugs a form dominated by generations of men in the Meaders family and made it her own. Described as the only female practitioner of Georgias Jugtown pottery tradition, Rogers (1922-2010) took up pottery five years after her husband, Horace, a fourth-generation potter, died in 1962. As with her few female counterparts, she came to it late in life. It was typical then for men to make large utilitarian pottery pieces while women served as housewives, pursuing pottery only after their children were grown.
