LONGPARK POTTERY
In 1883 the Longpark Pottery Terra Cotta China Works started in what earlier had been Brunel’s Atmospheric Railway at Newton Road, Torquay. The owners Messrs Critchlow, Ridley and Taylor, produced mainly terracotta items and very quickly dropped the incorrect use of the word ‘China’ from their impressed mark.
Around 1903 a group of Aller Vale potters took over, producing decorative glazed pottery similar to that of Aller Vale with the business later being recorded as the Longpark Pottery Co. Ltd.
Notable decorators who worked at Longpark were Charles Collard and James Main (1903-05) and later William (Bill) Howard who was best known for the scroll and Kingfisher decorations during his many years there. Around the time of the First World War the pottery produced some fine North Devon style of vases with applied dragons, some with two or three twisted handles, also other grotesque animal forms were made. Still others made of white clay had panels showing birds over a stippled background. There is a pottery style known as ‘Royal Longpark’ that has simple motifs under a lustrous deep green glaze, also to be found is a quaint range of sombre ‘Rustic’ pottery made with applied flowers thought to have been an employee who was given a free hand with his own designs.

Large Naturalist Oil on Board, Papaver Orientale, Poppies in a Vase
Located in Cotignac, FR
Large Naturalist oil on board still life of poppies in a jar by Eduard Bauer-Bredt. The painting is signed and dated bottom left and signed, titled and with exhibition number to the back board. Presented in a deep patinated custom frame.
A magnificent, lovely bright, cheery and impactful floral still life. Bauer-Bredt has used brush and knife to create a wonderful atmospheric rendition of freshly picked poppies in a large ceramic jar. The pinks and reds of the flowers sing against the more subtle taupe hues of the jar and the green of the foliage. A really lovely composition beautifully rendered in the tradition of Edouard Manet, Fantin Lantour and Leon Dabo.
