EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and whimsical lithograph captures a moment of surprise and misfortune in the life of French potter Bernard Palissy. In this imaginative scene, water cascades from a jug held by a statue in a lush garden, drenching Palissy's head. The artist, Alfred Wallis Mills, skillfully portrays the shock on Palissy's face as he is unexpectedly soaked. The print is part of "The Red Book of Heroes" written by Mrs Lang and published in 1909. It showcases historical figures like Palissy who have left their mark on society. Palissy was renowned for his ceramic works during the 16th century, making this depiction historically significant. The composition exudes an air of playfulness with its vivid colors and intricate details. The statue pouring water onto Palissy adds an element of surprise to the scene, emphasizing his astonishment at this unexpected turn of events. This artwork not only highlights Palissy's contribution to ceramics but also offers a glimpse into French culture during that era. Its inclusion in private collections speaks to its value as both a work of art and historical documentation. As we admire this lithograph, we are transported back in time to witness an amusing yet unfortunate incident that befell one of history's notable potters – Bernard Palissy.
