  From East to West: "Quaker Farmer" Chinese Export Porcelain in America examined the opening of the China Trade with America in 1785, the production and shipment of export porcelain for the Western market, and the commission of specialty porcelain services for wealthy clients in early nineteenth century Philadelphia.  Mary Hollingsworth Morris, a prominent Philadelphia Quaker, designed and commissioned the "Quaker Farmer" service for use at Greenhill Farm, the Morris family farm located outside Philadelphia.  In this full-color companion catalogue, Museum Curator Brian J. Lang presents groundbreaking research and compelling new information regarding the origin of the "Quaker Farmer" pattern, Quaker consumerism, and early nineteenth century material culture.  (58 pages, full-color; soft cover, $15)
