About the Item

This stunning Art Nouveau bronze flagon, designed by Jeanne Jozon for the esteemed Salon de Beaux Arts, France, is an extraordinary example of the naturalistic beauty and fluidity that define the Art Nouveau movement. Dating to circa 1900, this piece captures the harmonious relationship between the human form and the natural world, a hallmark of the era. The design of the flagon features a gracefully rendered maiden enveloped within curling vines and blooms of milk thistle. The maiden’s form is poised in serene, flowing elegance, her delicate features embodying the grace and vitality associated with femininity in Art Nouveau design. The milk thistle, with its intricate stems, textured leaves, and spiked flowers, wraps around the flagon, forming a dynamic interplay between the sculpted human figure and the organic forms. The thistle’s symbolic meanings of protection and resilience add depth and narrative to this composition. The bronze patina enhances the flagon’s intricate detailing, providing depth and contrast to the sinuous designs. The dynamic curves and organic forms are quintessential Art Nouveau, reflecting the movement’s fascination with the flowing lines of nature and its integration of functional objects with artistic expression. Signed by Jeanne Jozon, the flagon bears the mark of a highly skilled artist whose work was well-received at the Salon de Beaux Arts, a preeminent venue for showcasing innovative and masterful craftsmanship during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This captivating piece is not only a fine example of French Art Nouveau design but also a testament to Jeanne Jozon’s artistic prowess. Whether displayed as a collector's item or as part of a curated interior space, the flagon serves as a compelling reminder of the beauty and elegance of this artistic era. Styling beautifully in a wide array of spaces and settings, this Flagon bears maker's signature and foundry marks on the lower edge. In Excellent Vintage Condition.
