Axel Johannes Salto was an internationally renowned Danish ceramic artist. He studied at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts from 1909 to 1914.
Axel Salto visited Paris in 1916, where he met Pablo Picasso and Henri Matisse. This meeting was a landmark for Salto's creative ambitions and his influence on the innovative ideas of the time.
Throughout the 1920s his artistic focus shifted from painting to ceramics, and between 1923 and 1950 he created around 3,000 different ceramic pieces.
From the mid-1930s he worked mainly at the Royal Porcelain Factory in Copenhagen. Here Salto developed his ceramics, experimenting with unusually rich glazes and organic shapes.
