One other example with a variation of colours is known to exist in a private collection
The painter and engraver Felix Bracquemond (1833-1914) is known to have been among the first artists
to discover Japanese art and incorporate it in his work.
Naturally attracted to ceramics and after having worked with Theodore Deck for a short while he designs for
the editor and retailer Eugene Rousseau the famous “Service Rousseau” which was displayed at the 1867 Exposition Universelle.
From 1872 until 1881 he becomes the artistic director of Charles Haviland’s Atelier d’Auteuil and continues to design porcelain
wares including the other famous “Service Parisien”. It is there that he develops the production of “Impressionist barbotines”.
A serie of imaginary landscapes is designed, of which our plate is an example, calling for the technical prowess of painters
rather than ceramists and using strong coloured enamels reminiscent of the work of Paul Gauguin.
It is believed by experts that they were never put into production and only a few examples and their drawings are known to
exist and are mainly in the hands of Haviland’s descendants.
