Buthaud René (1886-1986) — Saintes, 1886 ; Bordeaux, 1986 — 3rd quarter 20th Century

Description

Coupe plate et ronde sur talon droit. Décor intérieur noir et brun sur fond crème marbré de brun : deux femmes nues chassent à l'arc une antilope, entourées d'étoiles et d'oiseaux. A l'extérieur : décor floral stylisé. Sur cette pièce et sur les suivantes qui lui sont contemporaines et dont l'inspiration est semblable, les silhouettes stylisées et simplifiées évoquent celles de peintures rupestres africaines. Nouvel avatar de la fascination de Buthaud pour l'Afrique noire.
