Jean Dunand’s path to becoming a master in lacquer began when he met the acclaimed Japanese artist Seizo Sugawara in 1912. Seeking to learn more about dinanderie, Sugawara offered to teach Dunand the art of lacquer if he would teach Sugawara about dinanderie in return. This fortuitous exchange set Dunand on the path to become one of the preeminent lacquer artists of the twentieth century, eventually setting up his own famed lacquer workshop. His brilliant dexterity in the medium is most evident in his lacquer portraits, as exemplified by the current work. His exploration and mastery of lacquer work garnered attention of various patrons and led to many important commissions such as the interiors of the Normandie ocean liner and the noted San Francisco apartment of Templeton Crocker. Dunand’s striking and elegant works also found favor with the most important fashion couturiers of his time, such as Madeleine Vionnet, Elsa Schiaparelli, and Jean-Charles Worth. The present panel, Parfum, was originally acquired by Jean-Charles Worth, whose grandfather founded the illustrious House of Worth fashion house. Assuming the role of chief designer in the1910s, Jean-Charles Worth is credited with introducing simple forms and sleek designs to the fashion house epitomizing Art Deco fashion. Images of Jean-Charles Worth circa 1930, around the time the current work was acquired, were taken by Man Ray and are in the permanent collection of the Centre Pompidou, Paris.
