Lit: Europaische Keramik 1880 - 1930.
Born into a family of ceramic workers, Eugene Baudin was widely recognized as a fine craftsman in late-19th-century France. He adopted the family trade, working in Vierzon and Charenton. Also a political activist, he was convicted and sentenced to death, which he escaped by self-exile to England. There he worked at Lambeth and Stoke-on-Trent. Receiving amnesty in 1881, he returned to France and founded the Poterie de Monaco in 1906.
