• Lot Description
  Curved ovoid ceramic vase, Incised signature "Jean Besnard". Jean Besnard was born in 1889 to artistic parents: his father Albert Besnard was a portrait painter and printmaker that worked in the style of Thomas Gainsborough, and his mother Charlotte Dubray was a talented sculptor. His first training in ceramics was in an apprenticeship in Savoy, where he learned folk methods of pottery. His formal training began at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris. Here, Besnard was a part of a group of fashionable artists known as the ‘Knights of the Bracelet’, a reference to their flamboyant clothing and jewelry. During his studies, Besnard became fascinated with unique methods of glazing, as well as traditional forms of Greek and Egyptian pottery.
