* Émile GALLÉ (1846-1904). - Lot 44
* Émile GALLÉ (1846-1904). Large tin-glazed earthenware navette bowl on foot with polychrome enamel decoration, enhanced with gold, of japanese flowers in the Imari style and a stylized design based on the superb Amphitrite fountain by Barthélémy Guibal (1699-1757) surrounded by grilles by Jean Lamour (1698-1771); the whole surmounted by a winged dragon in the round. Magnificent enamel seal on reverse, circa 1890; the piece also bears a number handwritten in red under enamel: N° 19. D. 36.5 × 30 cm. (Restoration to base) Extremely rare piece synthesizing the styles dear to Émile Gallé, prefiguring Art Nouveau and the École de Nancy: the city's most emblematic monument, naturalistic and Japanese styles in an extravagant and fantastic form borrowed from the nave cups of the Augsburg goldsmiths, Guibal's fountains and the dragons of the Place Stanislas gate.
