介绍（中）	切尔西凯拉米克艺术作品是第一家将自己指定为"艺术陶器"的美国陶瓷公司。它由罗伯逊家族的成员在马萨诸塞州切尔西创立，他们在来到这个国家之前都在英国的陶瓷行业磨练了自己的技能。罗伯逊在花瓶、牌匾和瓷砖上以低浮雕和高浮雕工作。这块牌匾以高浮雕为特色，描绘了战车上的女神，轮子像向日葵，由三只蝴蝶绘制。这是对克莱蒂胜利的经典故事的诠释，克莱蒂是仙女爱上赫利俄斯并变成向日葵的仙女。向日葵也与美学运动的流行品味产生了共鸣，向日葵是其标志性图像之一。这个场景可能来自当代出版物中的插图。这个花瓶来自2017年和2018年捐赠给大都会博物馆的美国艺术陶器小罗伯特·A·埃里森收藏。收藏中的作品可以追溯到 1870 年代中期至 1950 年代。它们共同构成了已知最全面和最重要的材料组合之一。
介绍（英）	The Chelsea Keramic Art Works was the first American ceramics firm to designate itself an "art pottery." It was founded in Chelsea, Massachusetts, by members of the Robertson family, all of whom had honed their skills in the ceramics industry in Britain before coming to this country. Robertson worked in low and high relief, on vases, plaques, and tiles. This plaque features a high relief depiction of a goddess in a chariot with wheels as sunflowers and drawn by three butterflies. It is an interpretation of the classical story of the triumph of Clytie, the nymph who fell in love with Helios and was transformed into a sunflower. The sunflower also resonated with the prevailing taste of the Aesthetic Movement, for which the sunflower was one of its iconic images. The scene likely derived from an illustration in a contemporary publication. This vase is from the Robert A. Ellison Jr. Collection of American art pottery donated to the Metropolitan Museum in 2017 and 2018. The works in the collection date from the mid-1870s through the 1950s. Together they comprise one of the most comprehensive and important assemblages of this material known.
