French poet, draftsman, painter, playwright and filmmaker, Jean Cocteau is one of the artists who have left the greatest mark on the 20th century. "Pottery saved my life! It saves me from using ink, which has become too dangerous because everything we write is systematically distorted by those who read it... " Jean Cocteau is an all-round artist, and was interested in ceramics between 1957 and 1963, in the workshop of Madeleine Jolly and Philippe Madeline in Villefranche-sur-mer where he created more than 300 pieces of earthenware. "Proud to have become an artisan-ceramist", he creates pieces with a clean and pure graphic design, faithful to the style of his drawings. We find his favourite motifs, with mythical and fairy tale inspirations: tragic heroes of mythology, fantastic plants, angels and fairy tale characters, embody the poet's overflowing and brilliant imagination. In 1983, Raynaud published 250 copies with the Seta Aubusson company of three motifs taken from Jean Cocteau's ceramic universe on pale pink paste plates. Thirty-five years later, still fascinated by the ceramic artist, Raynaud presents a complete new collection directly inspired by Jean Cocteau's work in the 1950s.
