Lot Essay

Hans Coper (1920-1981) met Lucie Rie in 1946 and worked quite literally back-to-back with her with her for ten years in the Albion Mews, London. Like Rie he was of Jewish decent and emigrated to London to avoid the National Socialist Party. His desire was to become a sculptor, but instead he became a potter of international repute producing sculptural ceramics.
