About the Item

Ceramic sculpture in glazed stoneware Unique piece Certificate : seal and signature by Jean-Claude Canonne and on the original certificate This sculpture is a very long time of work of preparing, both for the design and creation of the shape but especially for the composition of the enamels, because all of these enamels composition is fired in only one shot. It's a very hard work to success these kind of work. Jean-Claude Canonne is otherwise recognised by the ceramics profession for his exceptional mastery of glazes. This 29.2 inch sculpture with a majestic verticality. Inspired by a powerful mineral landscape, evokes a massif sculpted by the elements, where winds rush in and trees cling to the rocky flanks. The surface is composed of multiple layers of enamels - iron red, celadon, shino, and copper red enriched with cobalt and titanium - applied with a variety of techniques (sgraffito, brush, fingers, etc.), creating textures that recall both the roughness of the rocks and the luxuriant vegetation that takes root there. Golden touches, the fruit of alchemical enameling, add luminous accents, recalling the sun's rays filtering through the mists. About The mountains trilogy of Jean-Claude Canonne : These glazed stoneware sculptures, fired in a reducing atmosphere at 1300°C, embody Jean-Claude Canonne's vision of recreating the genesis of mountains in all their power and beauty. Through inspired enameling and modeling, he reinvents the processes of mineral and geological formation, like an echo of the telluric forces and volcanic eruptions that shape the relief. These three sculptures, united by their inspiration but distinct in their expression, bear witness to Jean-Claude Canonne's technical mastery and artistic vision, offering a poetic and powerful exploration of the mineral world.

Giacomo Onestini ceramic sculpture Italy 1970
By Giacomo Onestini
Located in Roosendaal, Noord Brabant
Beautiful ceramic sculpture designed by Giacomo Onestini made in his own atelier in Italy in 1970. It has a combination of matte and shiny glazed surfaces. The back and sides of the sculpture have a textured surface with shades of gray, green, and sometimes turquoise. On the front, there's a carved-out section that's smooth and glazed with red and gold hues. It's a very appealing and intriguing piece. You can find the artist's signature, "Onestini," on the side of the sculpture. This piece was created in the artist's personal studio. Very nice large sized, heavy piece and in excellent condition. After graduating as a master ceramist, Onestini moved to San Marino where he found employment at the "Marmaca" ceramics factory. Around the end of the 1950s, he moved to Salerno and began working with the "Ernestine...
