Dish 1650 - 1750

This "Dish" was created by Bernard Palissy, a renowned French potter, between 1650 and 1750. The dish is crafted from earthenware and features a unique and intricate design, characterized by molded, three-dimensional floral and animal motifs. The overall aesthetic is typical of Palissy's work, which combines naturalistic representations with a vibrant palette of blues, greens, and browns. The dish is a prime example of Renaissance decorative art, where the beauty of the natural world is celebrated and meticulously rendered in ceramic form.
