The Arequipa Sanatorium, located in rural Marin County, was founded in 1911 by Dr. Philip King Brown. Influenced by the philosophy of the Arts and Crafts movement, he sought to provide his working-class female patients not only with the medical care and rest that they needed, but also with the opportunity to engage in a creative pursuit that was both therapeutic and marketable. Brown settled upon pottery. Through vintage photographs, technical illustrations, and beautiful full-color reproductions, Fired By Ideals tells the story of this progressive institution and analyzes the distinctive pottery. Color & B-W, new condition, 129 pages, no collectors values. No remainder marks. created there. d the Arts and Crafts era.
