Wonderfully depicted piece of ceramic wall art by noted Hungarian artist Pal Ferencs. The magical tree has branches of fish and seated beneath is a woman holding a jug - I don't know what the symbolism is, but someone has suggested to me that the fish represent the church which was repressed during the Communist era. In any event, it's a lovely piece with a wonderful palette; 8 1/2 in diameter; 1 inch high and signed as depicted. ...click for details

Beautifully executed tile by artist Pal Ferenc. The abstract harpist has what appears to be a serpent emerging from his or her neck. Great rich palette. This one is unsigned but attributed based on the style (see item #2067). There is a tiny chip on the top of the tile in the rear so not viewable when hanging. It measures 8 x 8 and could be hung or displayed on an easel stand. Pal Ferenc, born in 1914 trained as a painter in the Hungarian Academy of Fine Arts but worked as a ceramic artist from ...click for details

Ceramic Art Tile Painting, Pal Ferenc, Hungary Catalogue: Vintage Arts: Decorative Art: Ceramics: Eastern Europe: Pre 1970 item# 911330 (stock# 2066)

This ceramic tile piece is starkly beautiful and reminiscent of a Pre-Raphaelite woman or from the later arts & craft period both of which advocated for less frivolous art and truth to nature. The flat blocks of color are distinctive, but even more so are the protruding eyes of both the woman and the fish (see photos) and the pebbles embedded in the surface of her robe. This piece is in a new frame but maintains the original paper backing with sticker and faint artist's signature. ...click for details

Distinctive glass vase/object attributed to Hungarian artist Geza Takacs. The elegant shape and design are enhanced by the very slightly concave circular pattern on the surface. This creates a great optical illusion when looking through the vase (see photos) It is 8 1/4 inches tall and in excellent condition.

Lively large ceramic wall tile by Helmut Schaffenacker a prolific German ceramic artist known for his highly abstracted objects and his wall tiles/plaques. His wall art is typically associated with horses, fish and other nature themes. This very early piece (1950s) echoes the Color Field painting style popular in the 1940s/50s with its flat angular blocks of color. The piece has a very dynamic nature and is executed in a style not unlike cloisonne enamel with its separate cells of color in t ...click for details
