Vase and bolster composition in Italian majolica from the 19th century.
The large pot-bellied vase, signed Collis, has polychrome decorations of the beheading of Saint John the Baptist.
At the end of Salome's dance before King Herod of Antipas, the latter grants her a favor. On the advice of her mother Herodias, Salome demands the beheading of the prophet. It is the next moment that the artist has chosen to illustrate, when the two women expose the head of St John the Baptist to the king's subjects.
The short neck is tightened and the lip is everted. The suboval handles are intertwined with snakes.
The base of the body is patterned with acanthus leaves in relief. These elements rest on a pedestal.
The tripod stand is decorated with flowers, butterflies, cherubs and antique scenes on a blue, yellow and beige background. It rests on three legs with concave lines.
This majolica vase and harness set, which can be separated, will bring character and an antique touch to your decoration.
