MONEY VALUE OF ART.—The prices paid for
specimens of pottery and porcelain afford striking instances
of the power of art and opinion to confer value on mean
materials. At Mr. Bernal's sale, one of Palissy's small
dishes, 12 inches diameter, with a lizard in the centre, was
sold for £162. In the Ceramic Court of the Crystal Palace,
a most interesting and important collection, there is a
Sevres plate for which £BOO, and a dish for which £l,OOO,
have been offered. At one of the Government exhibitions
at Gore House, two or three years ago, there were two
small Sevres vases for which a dealer told me he would give
£3,ooo.—Godwin's " Memorials of Workers."
