Large Ceramic Sculpture, Albert Thiry, Vallauris c. 1990
About the Item
Very large female figure executed in grogged clay and decorated with slips.
Albert Thiry and his wife Pyot founded their workshop in Vallauris in 1961.
Their creation is distinguished both by great poetry and a rusticity drawn in particular from the use of terracotta slip.
Alongside their utilitarian production of high quality, their very accomplished artistic creations take us into a universe imbued with humanity and an ode to nature.
The same goes for this hieratic shepherdess with a dress paved with leaves and a headdress in the shape of a hazelnut shell.
In a humorous way, the 2 feet of the shepherdess bear the extensive signature "Thiry".
It is in perfect condition.
Additional photos can be sent upon request.
