François Rupert CARABIN (1862-1932)
Woman with Squash – Lidded ceramic pot
A charming example of François-Rupert Carabin’s craftsmanship, this lidded ceramic pot stands out for its green glaze with brown drips, featuring a raised decoration of a nude woman embracing a voluminous squash. The artist, renowned for his fertile imagination and his taste for sensual and naturalistic forms, here expresses the fusion of the female body and the vegetal world in an organic composition, both decorative and symbolic.
Stamped with monogram and numbered 94 on the underside.
Height: 14 cm
