Jules Ziegler Water Bottle Circa 1840, Beauvaisis Stoneware
Artist: Jules Ziegler
Jules Ziegler, rare flat gourd decorated with a medallion depicting Raphael’s *Madonna of the Chair*
Unsigned—and for good reason : the shape and decoration leave no room for a signature
However, the object is pictured in Jacques Warren’s reference book on p. 186 (see photo)
The “Virgin on the Chair” motif is a recurring theme in Ziegler’s work
circa 1840, the condition is truly very good; for perfectionists, there is a microscopic enamel flaw—perhaps caused by the firing process—which is insignificant
21 cm in diameter, 25 cm at its longest point including the neck
Note the stopper, which I haven’t tried to remove—it’s stuck in place as is
