LARGE CERAMIC COVERED DISH

One of a small collection of known (photographed) pottery works by Artist Harriet Bellows.
3 of which are on display in the Smithsonian American Art Museum.  Signed Harriet Spleth, this work is dated to the late 1970s

Harriet Bellows received her bachelor’s and master of fine arts degrees from Alfred University. The artist owned and operated a studio until 1980, when she visited an air show in Cleveland. Within two weeks, she had begun flying lessons and soon dedicated all of her time to flying. She worked as a commercial airline pilot for thirty years and did not return to creating art until 1997.
