COCTEAU Jean (1889-1963) - MADELINE-JOLLY workshop "Médiévale" (Medieval) Tulip-shaped vase in pink clay with light brown oxide pencil strokes. White, green, yellow and red enamels. Signature "Jean Cocteau" incised in the enamel around the foot. Under the base, monogram and "59". In its box. Created in 1958 (Edition of 50, our proof hors commerce). Height 29 cm x Diam. 14 cm Jean Cocteau met Marie-Madeleine Jolly and Philippe Madeline in 1957. From then on, he worked with MADELINE-JOLLY potteries in VILLEFRANCHE-SUR-MER, until his death in 1963. Thanks to this cooperation, over 300 ceramics, poem-objects and jewelry pieces were produced. The "Prince Frivole" went so far as to say: "Pottery saved my life! It saves me from using ink, which has become too dangerous, because everything we write is systematically distorted by those who read it (...) Picasso told me that if I put a ceramic in the kiln, I was lost. But I've always enjoyed getting lost". Cocteau, a champion of the line, was to emphasize a clean, uncluttered line. Philippe Madeline said of the versatile artist: "How can you not be captivated by his well-balanced graphics, rigorous without being geometric, tender without being overbearing? This vase reflects the concern for total art inherent in the 20th century, with artists wishing to irrigate all facets of art, both pictorial and decorative. Provenance: According to family tradition, this vase was an internal gift to the workshop.
