About the Item
Rustic Elegance: A French Faience Blue and White Jug,
Circa 1900
This beautiful French faience jug, dating to circa 1900, is a testament to the enduring appeal of the blue and white tradition in European ceramics. The jug's elegant form, raised on a hollow foot, is divided into eight distinct panels that create a sense of structure and balance. The entire piece is decorated with underglaze blue, a technique that allows for a rich depth of color and fine detail.
The narrative scenes on the jug are what make it particularly captivating. One side presents a tranquil maritime scene, with a central sailing ship gracefully navigating the waters. Other vessels are visible in the background, and a charming village with a church can be seen on the distant shore, evoking a sense of peaceful coastal life. The opposite side offers a complementary rustic idyll: a young boy presents a tray of grapes to a seated woman, who holds up a bunch to eat. This scene of rural generosity and leisure is set against a charming, naturalistic background.
These two primary scenes are framed and enhanced by scrolling foliage, which decorates the area below the spout and around the handle. The upper shoulder and the flared foot are adorned with a similar, but more dense, leafy pattern, creating a harmonious visual flow across the jug's surface. The mark "R AP/277" in underglaze blue on the underside of the foot suggests a specific workshop or artist, though the piece's style is quintessentially French faience, a type of tin-glazed earthenware known for its bright white ground and painterly decoration. This jug is not merely a vessel; it is a canvas that tells a story of both seafaring life and pastoral simplicity, reflecting the artistic sensibilities of its time.
