"Axel Johannes Salto (born 17 November 1889 in Copenhagen, died 21 March 1961 in Frederiksberg) was a Danish ceramic artist of international fame. His works also include painting, graphic design and illustrations for books, jewelry and textiles. As author and founder of the art magazine Klingen (1917-1919), Salto was also an important contributor to the art debate in Denmark. He made his debut as an artist in 1911, but his primary career as a ceramist took off at the 1925 Paris Exhibition.
He was the son of Director H.C. Salto, married to Kamma Salto and father of Naja Salto." - (en.wikipedia.org 15.09.2019)
