The Campbell Collection of Soup Tureens October 25, 2009

'The Campbell Collection of Soup Tureens' at Winterthur is a permanent exhibition on display in Winterthur's Dorrance Gallery. This treasure trove of artfully crafted tureens in fascinating forms captivates young and old alike. From rabbits to cauliflowers, rococo to classical, these impressive objects took pride of place on lavish dining tables of the past. These sculpted metals, precious porcelains, and elegant earthenwares made and admired in Europe, Asia, and North and South America, have survived revolutions. Great history and beauty endure in this extraordinary assemblage of tureens and soup-related items generously donated to Winterthur by the Campbell Museum. Delight in objects made for royal palaces, presidential homes and aristocratic mansions.
