Pierre-Adrien Dalpayrat (1844-1910) & Jean Coulon (1853-1923) - "La Nuit" (Night)
This glazed stoneware pitcher embodies a masterful fusion of sculpture and ceramics, characteristic of the talent of Pierre-Adrien Dalpayrat and Jean Coulon. The main silhouette takes the form of a great horned owl, its bust sheltering three sleeping female figures, while a fourth nestles at the base, curled between its paws with powerful claws. The green enamel with grey flecks lends the work a dreamlike depth, sublimating the fluidity of the forms. Signed with the burst pomegranate seal, this is a rare and emblematic piece of the Art Nouveau period.
A model of this work is in the collections of the Musée d'Orsay in Paris.
