The "Japanese Tree Frog Cup" is a vibrant ceramic artwork by Kenneth Price, an influential Pop art artist renowned for his innovative ceramic sculptures. Drawing inspiration from his studies at institutions like Otis Art Institute and Alfred University, Price often incorporated playful and organic forms into his work. This piece exemplifies his mastery of ceramic techniques, resembling an animal painting in ceramic form, with a focus on the Japanese tree frog motif.
