Miklos Zsolnay More Art
Hungarian, 1800-1880
Miklos Zsolnay took Zsolnay into the international market place by establishing showrooms in Paris and Vienna for their luxury goods. His brother-in-law, Tade Sikorsky became Zsolnay’s chief designer while his sisters, Terez and Julia, contributed their designs and artworks to the firm. Julia Zsolnay (1856–1950) in particular influenced Zsolnay’s evolving artistic style. Beginning in 1895, she studied painting and ceramics in Munich, Vienna and Paris. As evidenced by her membership in the Hungarian Fine Arts Society; the Art Society in Vienna; and the Society of Women Artists in Munich, Julia Zsolnay was active in many European artistic communities where she would have had the opportunity to share ideas and absorb the latest artistic trends such as the Symbolist and the Jugendstil ethos. During the first decade of the 20th century, cats were especially popular subjects. The striking posters that Theodore Steinlen created in the 1890s for the earliest cabaret, Le Chat Noir in Paris had struck a nerve. In the exciting but uncertain new century, the cat was a perfect symbol of ambiguity: it stood as an expression of both domesticity and a feral nature. The cat is serene, proud, aloof and sensual; the cat is also mischievous, willful, independent and wild.

Biography:
Léonard Agathon Van Weydeveldt, said Agathon Léonard (1841-1923) was a sculptor of Belgian origin naturalized French. After studying art at the Lille Academy of Fine Arts and then at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, Agathon Léonard settled in Paris for a long time, where after having exhibited at the Salon of 1868, he joined the Society of French artists in 1887, then to the National Society of Fine Arts in 1897. Very involved in the artistic movement of the Art Nouveau style, he exhibited many pieces (medallions, bronze statuettes and ceramics) finely worked.
Following an order from the Manufacture Nationale de Sèvres, dating from 1898, Agathon Léonard exhibited at the Universal Exhibition of 1900 in Paris his famous table centerpiece "Game of the scarf" in porcelain biscuit, composed of fifteen statuettes representing dancers with pleated dresses reminiscent of Loïe Fuller's choreographies or Neo-Greek dancers...

Symbolist Cat

Located in Chicago, IL
SYMBOLIST CAT by ZSOLNAY, eosin glazed porcelain.
"It is easy to understand why the rabble dislike cats. A cat is beautiful; it suggests ideas of luxury, cleanliness, voluptuous pleasures." - Charles Baudelaire
Iridescence, which changes in every angle of reflected light, is the perfect compliment to a cat’s capricious nature. Zsolnay introduced its patented shiny metallic glaze, known as eosin, in 1893. The small family ceramics workshop begun in Pecs, Hungary by Miklos Zsolnay in 1853 had evolved into a world-class ceramics factory by this time. Zsolnay walked away with the Grand Prix at the 1878 World’s Fair in Paris for its art pottery. Under the stewardship of Vilmos Zsolnay...
