Summary
Adrien Dalpayrat was one of the most highly regarded ceramicists working in France in the late nineteenth century. Dalpayrat’s recognition came relatively late in life, at age 45, when he first revealed the distinctive oxblood glazes for which he was best known, along with the variety of stoneware forms he employed - everything from gourds to fantastical marine creatures.

Critics Review
‘This magnificent, large volume celebrates an innovative French ceramic artist, famous for his glazed stoneware vessels, as well as for his more sculptural production. The publication records the collection of the architect Peter Marino, who describes the glazes on Adrien Dalpayrat’s vases as “modern paintings in and of themselves”.’ – Decorative Arts Society
‘The outstanding feature of this sumptuous tome is the extraordinary photography that allows the reader to appreciate the tactile quality of the pots and sculptural creations and to absorb the forms and glazes of each piece. The full-page, sometimes double-page, full-bleed details do indeed appear like “modern paintings”, while the detailed shots of particular pieces emphasise the finer details of the designs … Despite requiring serious shelf space, this is a valuable volume that informs and gives pleasure.’ – Decorative Arts Society
