"Cavorting Gods and Goddesses", Art Deco Plate, Mayodon for Sèvres, Gold & Black
About the Item
Joyous and buoyant, this scene of four nude gods and goddesses, each with blue striped capes, cavorting in the clouds above, was designed and executed by the great Jean-Leon Mayodon for the legendary Sèvres porcelain works. The figures are glazed in jet black, set off by a background of gold-veined ivory glaze, and bordered by gray -- and more gold veining. Mayodon created a great variety of ceramic pieces with mythological themes, usually gods and goddesses romping across the land or sea with great joy, sometimes from his own studio, at times working with famed makers such as Sèvres. The piece is dated 1950 and monogrammed by Mayodon on the bottom.
