"Ceramic Plaque Signed Jean Rivier Circa 1960"
Ceramic plaque signed Jean Rivier, made around 1960. This work presents a stylized abstract motif, evoking a totemic figure. The decoration is executed in brown oxide, underlined by colored enamels (blue, green, yellow and red) on a white enameled earthenware base. Influenced by primitive art and modern abstraction, Rivier uses clean lines and organic shapes to create a dynamic composition. His work is part of the movement of 20th century ceramic art, marked by experimentation and aesthetic research. An unfortunate chip is present on the edge of the piece, the price takes this defect into account. 4o
