Abstract

At the end of the 18th century, amateurs and collectors rediscovered the work of Bernard Palissy, geologist, chemist and potter to the king, who marked the history of the French Renaissance. In 1843, Charles-Jean Avisseau from Touraine rediscovered the secrets of the master potter, followed in Paris from 1851 by Barbizet, Pull, Sergent and Maurice. This luxury and fantasy pottery, between naturalism and historicism, participates in a renewal of artistic ceramics of Parisian factories.
