Description
Louis Léopold Thuilant (1862–1916) Jug depicting a roadmender Made of glazed earthenware with a yellow base. It is ovoid in shape with a dorsal handle. The spout is zoomorphic, shaped like a hen’s head in the round. The stopper is also in the round and depicts a hen brooding on her nest. The relief decoration depicts a roadmender, surrounded by animals: two unharnessed horses, two dogs and two goats, arranged symmetrically. A cockerel and a fish complete this lively scene. Various motifs stamped on the body: fleur-de-lis crosses, small crosses, horseshoes and various other crosses. A stylised motif, resembling a snowflake, features an incised profile of a man at its centre. A cartouche on the reverse bears the hand-incised inscription ‘Fait Par // Thuylant fils // Potier a Prevelle // en 1886 Sarthe’ Sarthe, late 19th century H. 27 cm (without the stopper) and 30 cm with the stopper Neck broken and re-glued; damage including chips and small fractures.
