Charles-Jean Avisseau's "Grotto with owl, snake, and lizard" (1845-1855) is a striking ceramic sculpture that depicts a complex ecosystem. The piece features an owl perched on a tree stump, with a snake and a lizard winding their way through the dense foliage. The intricate details and realistic portrayal of the animals and plants demonstrate Avisseau's skill as a modeler. This work is a prime example of French ceramic art, renowned for its meticulous craftsmanship and naturalistic themes.
