Camille Le Tallec (November 9, 1906 – August 21, 1991) was a French porcelain craftsman and artist. ==Biography== Camille Le Tallec was born in Paris from Breton of Lorient and Picard ancestry. He graduated in 1929 from the prestigious École du Louvre in Paris with a thesis on the Nast porcelain of the 18th century.〔Keith and Thomas Waterbrook-Clyde (2003), p.7-8〕〔 ''Camille Le Tallec, un céramiste parle de sa collection'', in ''Connaissance des arts'' no 40, june 15th 1955, p.62-65.〕 He then took over, in 1930, the familial hand-painted porcelain studio founded in Belleville (Paris) early in the century. Rapidly, Le Tallec decided to continue in the tradition of the Vincennes porcelain and Sèvres porcelain, expanding the small and local business, the Atelier Le Tallec. In thirty years, the studio created hand-painted porcelain tablewares for famous individuals such as Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom, Kings Mohammed V and Hassan II of Morocco, the Ville de Paris or the French Republic, amongst others.〔〔''La vraie vie des Français'', Janick Arbois et Joshka Schidlow, éditions du Seuil, 1978, ISBN 978-2-02-004821-7, p.173-174.〕 In 1961, Le Tallec started a fruitful collaboration with the silver and jewelry firm Tiffany & Co which led in 1990 to the Atelier Le Tallec's incorporation into the American company, one year before his death in Paris.〔 Tiffany's and Le Tallec designed successful original and private porcelain patterns that can be seen both at the Viaduc des Arts of the promenade plantée in the 12th arrondissement of Paris and in all Tiffany's stores in the United-States. Over 60 years, Le Tallec has maintained traditional hand-painted porcelain. He preserved and revisited about 375 original and historical patterns signed by the Le Tallec's marks.〔Keith and Thomas Waterbrook-Clyde (2003), p.10-14〕 Atelier Le Tallec was inducted as a member of the Grands Ateliers de France (the fifty best studios in France) in 2000. Le Tallec also acquired from 1935 to 1955 prestigious pieces of European porcelain.〔''Un collectionneur de céramiques'' by Georges Lefebvre in ''L'Estampille - L'Objet d'art'' nº239 september 1990, p76-83.〕 His exceptional collection was dispersed by auction in 1990, and some masterpieces acquired by international museums such as the Louvre, the musée de la Faïence de Marseille, and the musée de l'Île-de-France〔 (Notice no 04170004236 ), base Joconde, ministère de la Culture ; (Notice no 04170006538 ), base Joconde, ministère de la Culture ; (Notice no 04170006539 ), sur la base Joconde, ministère de la Culture ; (Notice no 04170006540 ), base Joconde, ministère de la Culture〕 and various porcelain collectors.〔 He was a Chevalier de la Légion d'honneur appointed in 1976 by a schoolmate of his: Edgar Faure, then president of the French National Assembly. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Camille Le Tallec」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
