Maurice Verneuil - part 2

Maurice Pillard Verneuil (1869 - 1942) was born in Saint Quentin, France. He learned his trade from the Swiss designer Eugène Grasset (a series on Eugène Grasset can be found in the index of this blog). Verneuil then went on to become a well-known artist and designer. He was inspired by Japanese art and nature, particularly the sea. He is known for his contribution to the Art Deco movement and, in particular, his use of bold, floral designs in ceramic tiles, wallpapers, and other furnishing textiles.

This is part 2 of a 6-part series on the works of Maurice Verneuil.
