EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken around 1901, captures the interior of a pottery shop in Biloxi, Mississippi. The sign in the center of the image reads "Biloxi, Miss. Clay, artwork. Cannot be duplicated. G.E. Ohr. Fecit," identifying the location and the potter, George E. Ohr, who created the artwork on display. The scene is bustling with activity, as men of various ages and races engage in the shopping experience, carefully examining the pottery and glass items on display. The pottery shop, which appears to be a souvenir shop as well, showcases a wide variety of ceramics, from intricately designed vases to functional tableware. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with natural light filtering in through the windows and casting a soft glow on the items for sale. The shopkeeper, likely Mr. Ohr himself, sits at a table, perhaps ready to make a sale or offer a demonstration of his craft. The photograph, which is a silver gelatin glass transparency, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when handmade ceramics were a cherished memento and a symbol of local heritage. The scene is a testament to the rich history of American craftsmanship and the enduring appeal of the pottery tradition in Biloxi, Mississippi.
