Item Description
A rare decorated terracotta bowl by Manja Wang, reclusive Saint Tropez avant-garde artist, decorated with 4 dancers in Polish costume and a Green Man to the bowl interior.
It’s the 1950’s, the golden age of St Tropez, and the uncredited star of the French New Wave is the iconic hideaway Hôtel La Ponche. Picasso in Mougins escaped to visit Manja Wang, he was very attracted to the Polish artist, muse of Mane-Katz, in his Rue Des Remparts studio she painted on silk and ceramics.
“I remember the fiery eyes of Picasso as he sat at the corner of the terrace to watch the sea and see his love. I too was impressed by the beauty of Manja, this beautiful lady, with long black hair reaching down to her waist”. - A young Simone Duckstein, eye wide open, at the Hotel La Ponche
Manja Wang 1910-1985 Bowl size 21cm diameter, 12cm tall
