Original Description
"Dawn of Creation" by Jean Dunand is a mesmerizing lacquer panel that captures the organic dynamism of marine life through Art Deco's geometric precision. Created circa 1925 during the movement's golden age, this shimmering masterpiece depicts stylized fish swirling through cobalt waves, their scales rendered in alternating planes of matte and burnished gold. Dunand, a Swiss-French maestro of decorative arts, pioneered the fusion of Japanese urushi techniques with Western modernism—his signature eggshell inlays here forming delicate aquatic textures. As one of only 50 documented lacquer works by the artist, it represents a pivotal moment when decorative objects gained equal stature with fine art, later influencing designers like Eileen Gray. The rhythmic composition vibrates with underwater energy, where Dunand's mastery transforms aquatic movement into a metallic ballet of light and shadow.
For contemporary spaces, this seminal work demands consideration as a focal point in minimalist interiors or Art Deco-inspired offices. Its aquatic blues and golds pair brilliantly with navy velvet sofas or walnut paneling, while the 39x59cm dimensions suit above a credenza or as part of a gallery wall. In a sunlit dining room, position it opposite silver-leafed walls to amplify its reflective qualities; for corporate settings, flank it with tubular steel furniture echoing its machine-age aesthetic. The ideal viewing height aligns the central fish swarm with eye level (approximately 145cm from floor). Repeating its palette through turquoise glassware or brass accent tables creates cohesion, while keeping surrounding walls in matte ivory prevents visual competition. As both investment and inspiration, Dunand's piscine poetry bridges historical craftsmanship with timeless elegance.
