EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-finished chromolithograph depicts a flower pot or planter from the historic city of Rouen, France, adorned with a captivating landscape scene. At the center, the ancient Roman god Pan, identified by his horns and goat legs, plays his pipes to a contented goat. Surrounding them are playful leopards, their spots adding a touch of wildness to the idyllic setting. Originally published in Chez l'Auteur's "General History of Ancient French and Foreign Glazed Pottery" in Paris in 1874, this lithograph showcases the intricate detail and artistry of the Ris Paquet printing process. The porcelain pottery and potteries of Rouen were renowned for their high-quality glazes and intricate decorations, making this piece a prized example of the region's rich artistic heritage. The vibrant colors and meticulous shading in this chromolithograph bring the scene to life, transporting the viewer to a time when nature spirits and mythological beings were believed to inhabit the natural world. The combination of the decorative pottery and the lively scene of Pan and his companions creates a stunning work of art that is as visually appealing today as it was over a century ago. This unique piece is a testament to the enduring allure of the natural world and the power of art to capture the imagination. Whether displayed as a decorative accent in a home or a centerpiece in a collection of historical art, this Rouen pottery chromolithograph is sure to captivate and inspire.
