TU-ChristiesIn 1949, Fernand Léger began to collaborate with a ceramicist called Robert Brice, who wanted to translate Léger’s unique style into ceramics. The resulting works represent a true collaboration: Brice would look at technical aspects of production, developing a brilliant enamel finish. Léger, of course, conceived the design, shaping the final relief after it had been made and applying bright colour.
Fernand Léger (1881-1955), Visage Aux Deux Mains. Bas-relief en céramique peinte et émaillée, is offered in our Art Moderne auciton on 21 October 2016 at Christie’s in Paris.
