About the Item

Preparatory drawing by Roger Capron in acrylic pencil on craft paper Roger Capron, a French ceramist, discovered ceramics in 1946 in Vallauris, where he founded the Callis workshop. Alongside Robert Picault and Jean Derval, he helped revive local ceramic art. In 1952, he bought a pottery factory and began producing decorative objects and tiles. His work quickly gained recognition. From 1962, he collaborated with Jean-Michel Carré, creating ceramic decorations for the Byblos Hotel in Saint-Tropez. After selling his factory in 1980, Capron focused on creating unique, sculpture-like pieces starting in 1990.

Pencil and watercolour heightened with gold paint and gum arabic on paper, 36.8 x 27.9 cm A gift so majestic, it made kings blush, and a gift so grand, it would startle Europe into a craze. Pasha Muhammad Ali of Egypt (1805-1848) did it in 1827: he sent to Europe three magical spotted, horned creatures, each with a neck reaching the skies and legs as long as a house is high. One giraffe to King Charles X of France, one to Francis I of Austria and the most fabled one to King George IV of England. A curious sight for Europeans, who had not seen such a beast since the Medici giraffe in 1487. Few animals created more of a stir in Europe than these royal...
