About the Item
Brilliantly designed by Jean Beaumont and beautifully glazed by Charles Fritz for the famed Sèvres Porcelain works in 1936, this enormous, unique platter depicts a Basque farmworker driving two bulls through the countryside, with a lovely fountain in the foreground, and a local village and mountains in the background. Beaumont is known for designing some of the most ambitious and striking of Sevres' Art Deco vases and other pieces, and here he surrounds the scene with a complex Art Deco border teeming with Basque folk art symbols as well as chevrons and geometric patterns. The platter is bathed in snowy-white and sand-colored glazes, and is well-marked on the reverse.
