The objects are well displayed throughout. Many, such as the ubiquitous lead-glazed plates and platters, hang on the walls with the two-dimensional paper works, while others can be found distributed in cases. A plate by Picasso featuring a crude fish with an unsightly abscess of an eye confronts the viewer entering the second gallery. The cases utilize mirrors to good effect...
