A darker vase with an Art Nouveau decor, volute handles and a relief of a child's face in a floral medallion. Marked from below Prague (Umprum). Anna Boudová Suchardová came from a famous sculptural family and made her debut as a flower painter at the Umělecká beseda exhibition (1897), but her work developed towards Art Nouveau arts and crafts. At the World Exhibition in Paris in 1900, she exhibited several ceramic vases with painted plastic decor and participated in the decoration of the Provincial Bank in Příkopy (1894–1895). She created painted decorative festoons for Wilson railway station.
