Jules Agard : Ram Head Sculpture, Vallauris, 1950s
About the Item
Jules Agard was the technical director of Madoura in Vallauris. It was therefore quite natural that Suzanne Ramié, founder of the workshop, asked him to form the pots that Pablo Picasso was going to paint. Agard and Picasso's collaboration lasted 22 years. Beyond the technical aspect, it is a friendship and a beautiful bond that developed between the two men, as Dominique Sassi testifies in his book "In the shadow of Picasso".
This hand painted ram head by one the masters of the 1950s Vallauris pottery reflects Agard's deep appreciation for the natural world and his ability to translate that appreciation into powerful and evocative art.
