Large French Art Deco ceramic stoneware vase- Ref 12711
by PRIMAVERA (Paris)
France, 1923-1926
The mythological decor composed of Europa riding the bull, and an Amazon, a horse, in a typical plant decoration,
shows a return to René Buthaud's Persian inspirations of 1918
However, the drawing of the young women is totally in tune with his style from the early 1920s
The molded shape of the vase is prior to the arrival of Buthaud in Sainte-Radegonde
We meet it since 1920 with a decor by Peaudecerf & Girault (illustrated in "Primavera, 1912-1972, Atelier d'Art du Printemps" Edition Faton, 2014, page # 76, see photo)
Height : 32cm (12.6"), Diameter : 29cm (11.4")
Engraved under the base "Primavera France 480" (see photo)
The neck of the vase is slightly tilted as was often the case at Sainte-Radegonde
The mold seam is visible
In its original condition when it left the workshop
