EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Sevres fond pourpre topographical plate, crafted from hard paste porcelain by the French School in the 19th century. The plate, now part of a private collection, bears iron-red stencilled marks indicating its creation in 1807 and 1804. The plate is believed to be from the Service de l'Archichancelier, a dessert service commissioned by Napoleon I as a gift to his Archchancellor, Jean Jacques Regis de Combaceres. It was specifically created to celebrate the marriage of Napoleon's adopted daughter. The image captures the exquisite beauty of this ceramic masterpiece with its gilded edges and intricate design. The landscape depicted on the plate portrays a serene rural scene complete with rustic buildings and winding paths. Adding life to this idyllic setting are horses gracefully trotting along the track nearby. Their presence adds an element of wildlife and farm animals to this already enchanting composition. This photograph not only highlights the artistic excellence of Sevres porcelain but also offers us a glimpse into history through its connection with Napoleon Bonaparte's courtly gifts. With every detail meticulously captured by Bridgeman Images, this print serves as both an aesthetic delight and an intriguing historical artifact for art enthusiasts worldwide.
