3 unusual facts about Émile Lessore


Émile Lessore

Emile painted a variety of ceramic pieces, many for the Wedgwood pottery company.

In 1851, Lessore began his ceramics work in Sèvres, a southwestern suburb of Paris, France known for its porcelain manufacture.

Lessore's unique artistic expression did not fit well with the techniques of the other artists in Sèvres and by 1858 Lessore had moved to England to work for English potter Thomas Minton.
