1. Title: Decorative Rectangular Plate from Rouen with Putti and Musical Instruments This exquisite decorative plate, hailing from the historic city of Rouen in France, showcases a vibrant and intricately designed scene. The plate's rectangular shape, adorned with elegant handles, is the perfect canvas for this stunning work of art. The plate's centerpiece is a captivating tableau of six putti, each playfully engaged with various musical instruments. The putti, symbolizing mischievous and playful spirits, are depicted wearing laurel wreaths, a symbol of victory and honor. They hold and play cellos, lutes, lyres, quills, and torches against a resplendent gold ground. The border of the plate is equally impressive, featuring lush foliage and intricate designs. The hand-finished chromolithograph, a printing technique that uses multiple lithographic stones, showcases the meticulous attention to detail and the artist's mastery of the medium. Originally published in "General History of Ancient French and Foreign Glazed Pottery" by Ris Paquots in Paris in 1874, this plate is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Rouen and the porcelain and pottery industry in France during the late 19th century. The plate's intricate design, stunning colors, and historical significance make it a valuable addition to any collection of decorative arts or European history.
