‘White Roses in a Green Vase’ Porcelain Teacup / Teapot / Porcelain Vase
Porcelain Teacup
Teapot
This inspiration comes from Van Gogh’s 1890 painting White Roses . Van Gogh always loved to use plants as the themes
of his painting, including sunflowers, irises and thistles. People familiar with Van Gogh’s work know that he utilized roses and peonies later in life. Though lonely and sad, most of his life Van Gogh was happiest just before dying in 1890 while under the care of Dr. Gachet. This painting was done during that period. The rose is a symbol of romance and happiness. In contrast to the strong and bright colors of sunflowers, the colors applied in this painting are moderate compared to his earlier paintings. Simple white and green colors were used to show a beautiful world. Franz designer Junnie Fu carefully transformed the warm green onto the oval shape with the white roses blossoming in the mouth as a bunch of graceful roses, depicting a romantic and beautiful world.

‘Drowning Girl’ Umbrella
Weather the storm with this graphic umbrella that features Roy Lichtenstein’s artwork Drowning Girl , from 1963, which is featured in MoMA’s collection. Lichtenstein based many of his early paintings on imagery he found in comic books. The source for this work is Run for Love ! published by DC Comics in 1962. Roy Fox Lichtenstein (1923—1997) was an American pop artist. During the 1960s, he became a leading figure in the new art movement. His work defined the basic premise of pop art through parody. His work 16 |
was heavily influenced by both popular advertising and the comic book style. Drowning Girl is generally regarded as Lichtenstein’s most famous works.

Sky Umbrella
In 1992 the MoMA Design Store introduced the Sky Umbrella by legendary graphic designer Tibor Kalman and Emanuela Frattini Magnusson. The umbrella’s exterior shows nothing more than a plain, black canopy and a simple wooden handle. Once opened, the interior reveals a cheerful blue sky dotted with fluffy, white clouds. The umbrella’s surprising blue-sky interior echoes the playful career of Kalman, whose work is featured in the Museum’s collection. Kalman once again used the visual motif of the Sky Umbrella in a 1995 issue of Colors, an award-winning global magazine where Kalman served as the founding editor-in-chief. The umbrella is made of
sturdy nylon covering the photo-processprinted sky on polyester with a durable wooden shaft and handle with a manual open/close mechanism. Tibor Kalman (1949-1999) founded the legendary, multidisciplinary design firm M & Co in 1979. In collaboration with his wife Maira, the conceptually progressive firm initially created graphics, magazines and film titles, and books. Following the release of a record album cover for the rock band Talking Heads, M & Co gained major attention for ‘pushing the envelope’on conventions of design and typography, and went on to become a major influence on emerging designers. | 17

‘Cray’ Silk Scarf
splattering, dripping, flinging, and pouring paint onto unstretched canvases laid flat on the floor. Reflecting the radical shift in art toward Abstract Expressionism, Pollock’s paintings are emblematic of an important moment for American art
This timeless silk scarf is printed with one of William Morris’s most well known designs. Entitled Cray and originally dating from 1884, the marvelously intricate floral pattern bears the hallmarks of his style, and translates beautifully to this elegant
silk with its subtle sheen. The scarf is made from 100% silk twill. Extremely easy to wear, it is already proving to be an enduring classic. William Morris (1834—1896) was an English textile designer, poet, novelist, translator, and socialist activist. Associated with the British Arts and Crafts Movement, he was a major contributor to the revival of traditional British textile arts and methods of production. His literary contributions helped to establish the modern fantasy genre, while he played a significant role in propagating the early socialist movement in Britain. | 19
