1877
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
Saucer with Rich Enameled Ground and Medallion Representing the Goddess Kounin is a 1877 by Jules Jacquemart, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This round plate shows a woman dressed in flowing robes, standing on a rocky shore. She holds a tall staff and has a bird flying near her. The background is packed with swirling clouds, flowers, and small animals, all in black and white with some gold accents. The woman looks like a goddess, which the label confirms is Kounin. The artist used a lot of detail to fill the space, making it feel busy but balanced. If you like this style, check out The Cleveland Museum of Art for more decorated objects like this.
