Contribution a l'étude de la céramique orientale
A plate-printed folio from D. Fouquet's 1900 Paris study of Oriental ceramics, published by Gillot for scholars and collectors of Middle Eastern pottery. The plates show fragments and whole bowls in blue-and-white, green and polychrome glazes, with Arabic calligraphy, scrolling vines, rosettes, geometric star-and-lozenge lattices and stylised birds and fish that a designer could draw on for pattern repeats and motif libraries.
