Angera” verso with original “Hecho en Mexico” label intact, this piece was likely produced as part of the flourishing mid-century Mexican studio pottery movement, when artisans in regions such as Tonalá and Tlaquepaque began creating highly decorative modern ceramics for export and interior design markets. Mexican folk pottery of the era frequently blended traditional craftsmanship with contemporary European modernist influences, including Cubism and Picasso-inspired forms. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1031\" data-end=\"1315\"\u003eThe graphic segmented border, expressive brushwork, and stylized bull imagery give the plate a strong sculptural presence reminiscent of both mid-century modern design and postwar art pottery.
