In 1933, C. Szwedzicki of Nice, France, published a set of 50 pottery images in color from specimens in the collection of the Indian Arts Fund of Santa Fe, New Mexico. This group was issued as Volume I of several volumes to be published later on other subjects. Only 750 copies of this volume were printed. The portfolio was titled Pueblo Indian Pottery. The 50 individual plates of pottery from nine pueblos were combined with a booklet and encased in a hard bound folio.
This image is Plate 33 of the portfolio. It is a Cochiti Pueblo bowl. The explanation provided by Szwedzicki in the portfolio is “Antique bowl with geometric design on exterior. Interior device of feathers, rain, and plants, with a cloud border at rim. Diameter, 20 inches.”
