Raymond Trameau (1897-1985) is a painter, sculptor, ceramist and enameler. During the First World War, in 1914, he attended the École Pratique des Arts Appliqués et Décoratifs in Paris. He entered the Ateliers d'Art in 1920. He became friends with Valensi in 1947. Between the two wars, he exhibited figurative paintings at the Salon des Indépendants in Paris, then after 1945 with the Musicalistes. He showed his works in numerous solo exhibitions in Paris and abroad. Around 1947, his painting became abstract, strongly geometric, with striated or pricked triangles. A renovator of enamel, he created admirable champlevé and cloisonné enamels.
