There is not a vast amount of information out there about Madeleine Jolly, though pieces by her do appear relatively frequently. Many of these are slightly "kitsch" with painted designs of flowers or animals on, but running though her work is a tendency towards abstraction, as seen in this vessel with elongated silhouetted figures. Jolly worked at Villefranche Sur Mer in her pottery Le Triskel with her husband Philippe Madeline, and much like Picasso at Madoura with Suzanne Ramie, Jean Cocteau benefitted from their expertise as he made over 300 ceramics there between 1957-1963.
