Ceramic plate, design by Jean Picart Le Doux, Saint-Vicens workshop, around 1950.

Ceramic plate made after a design by Jean Picart Le Doux in the 1950s, produced by the Saint-Vicens workshop in Perpignan. The graphic decoration, in reserve on a deep blue background, features a stylised animal figure surrounded by a scattering of stars. The deliberately simplified and contrasting treatment reflects the visual language of Jean Picart Le Doux, characterised by a direct and readable decorative approach. The piece is handmade, as indicated by the inscription on the reverse "Design by Jean Picart Le Doux, Saint-Vicens, " attesting to the collaboration between the artist and this workshop known for its post-war ceramic productions. France, circa 1950.
