Camille Raymond Fauré is a French enamel artist, born on November 16, 1874 in Péri-gueux and died on October 7, 1956 in Limoges. He is best known for his work designing enamels for the companies manufacturing porcelain in Limoges. Floral and figurative motifs in richly enameled colors are his signature.
At the beginning of the 20th century, he sold his creations in Paris in the shop Au Vase Étrusque. In this shop, he produces and exhibits vases, bowls, ashtrays, boxes and other objects.
The 1925 International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts marks Fauré’s breakthrough. He becomes the most famous enameller of Limoges. Other Limoges enamelers active in the 1920s include Paul Bonnaud, Jules Sarlandie and Henriette Marty.
In 1925, Fauré established his own company in Limoges. It employs five enamelers: Lucie Dadat, Pierre Bardy, Louis Valade, Marcelle Decouty-Védrenne and Jeanne Soubourou. The latter have the possibility to create freely under the brand «C. Fauré Limoges». The company specializes in the production of signs and advertising plates for stores, as well as painting and interior decoration. This specialization coincides with the boom in department stores at that time.
The prolific artist who was Daumier painted very freely for himself, retaking in successive versions the same subjects. The amateur, absorbed in the search for an engraving, is one of those figures of the Parisian petty bourgeoisie dear to Daumier.
The Amateur illustrates the emergence during the Second Empire, in Balzac’s France, of a new type of collector. The founding of the Society of Aquaforists in 1861, was a response to the renewed interest shown by these amateurs in original prints, which were more accessible than painting at modest incomes.
While continuing to observe the customs and characters of his time, Daumier here abandons the satirical verve of the lithographer of the Sketches of Salon, to give his character a more universal expression. The collected atmosphere treated in chiaroscuro, the sobriety of the camaïeux, the monumentality of the models recall this impression of peaceful gravity that emanates from the interiors of Chardin.
We have little reference to know the chronology and stylistic evolution of Daumier’s paintings remained, with rare exceptions, in the workshop. His production had to be intensified after he was fired from the newspaper Le Charivari in 1860, which left him more time to de-vote himself to painting easels. Celebrated during his lifetime by Delacroix and Baudelaire, Daumier sold his works to a small circle of amateurs, such as Corot, the caring friend, who kept this painting until the end of his life.

Camille Fauré
Camille Faurè produced designs for Limoges, long famed for its enamels.
Born in Perigueux, France, in 1874, Faurè spent a long apprenticeship before setting up his own workshop at Limoges, where he worked for over fifty years. Fauré became Limoges’ most famous and talented enamel artist. He exhibited in the 1925 International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts, which gave Art Deco its name.
Faurè’s early work, like his post–World War II designs, involved large floral patterns, often in rich colors that kept in line with the Art Nouveau movement. He exhibited through his Paris shop, and produced vases, bowls, ashtrays, boxes and other items.
Faurè’s vases were made in many different shapes, including those of the gourd, kettledrum and egg, with geometric or stylized floral patterns. It was his geometric designs, however, which set him apart as the greatest creative enameller of the Art Deco style. These geometric designs included chevrons, lozenges, diagonal and stripe patterns and floral motifs, ranging from naturalistic to stylized patterns of leaves and flowers. The geometric patterns featured strong hues of blue, red, orange and yellow accented with blacks, whereas the floral patterns had more delicate hues such as turquoise, light blue, pink, lavender and white. Some vases had panels and borders of floral motifs combined with geometric stepped and angled motifs.
Using large vessels, vases, bowls or open-mouthed jardinières, the copper was covered in multiple layers of polychrome enamels in hard, vitreous, three-dimensional geometric designs of subtle complexity and color combinations. Faurè’s friend Marty occasionally worked with him in a very similar style. Both produced a small number of pendants in enameled gold, silver and copper.

Faust and Marguerite
Faust is tired of his old life and wants to kill himself. In a final burst of bitter anger, he invokes the devil. The devil appears in the guise of Mephistopheles and offers him a pact: he will grant him what he desires most in the world in exchange for his servitude. Faust asks him for youth and his help in seducing Marguerite. When he achieves his goal, bound by his contract with the devil, Faust abandons the latter who is waiting for her child. Filled with remorse, he returns to her, but kills Valentin, Marguerite's brother who tries to stop him, during a duel. He then tries to save the life of Marguerite who is imprisoned for infanticide, but he fails. Like this multifaceted character, the vocal treat-ment chosen by Gounod is differentiated: sometimes very lyrical with touching flights, sometimes very cold and repetitive to evoke her detachment from the world of men.
Marguerite is young and naive. She lets herself be seduced by the charming and mysterious character of Faust and thus causes her own downfall as well as that of her family (her brother and her child will die).
Hortense Richard (1858-1940)
Marie Sophie Hortense Jeanne Schrenk was born in Charonne in 1858, the natural daughter of Louise Christine Frederika Schrenk and an unnamed father.

A Rare 19th Century Honore Daumier Caricature from the "Types Parisiens" Series
By Honoré Daumier
Located in Alamo, CA
This is a rare 19th century satirical lithograph by Honoré-Victorin Daumier entitled "Types Parisiens, L'InstItuteur: Votre fils me fera honneur!....c'est un joli sujet!!!", No. 24 (Parisian Types, The Institutor: Your son will be my honor! ... it's a nice subject !!), published in Paris in the satirical magazine La Caricature, May 24, 1840 by Aubert et Cie. It depicts a man presenting his son to another man, presumably a teacher or school headmaster, who politely states that it would be an honor to take care of such a nice boy, as he watches the boy picking his nose. An apparent teaching poster or map hangs on the wall in the background.
