EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite plate, hailing from the enchanting city of Rouen, France, showcases a breathtaking landscape adorned with vibrant floral borders. The plate, a masterpiece of artistry and craftsmanship, is a hand-finished chromolithograph from the esteemed "Histoire Générale de la Faience Ancienne Française et Étrangère" by Ris Paquet, published in Paris in 1874. Chromolithography, a popular printing technique of the late 19th century, allowed for the creation of richly colored and detailed images. In this plate, the landscape unfolds as a picturesque tableau, with rolling hills, verdant forests, and a serene body of water reflecting the sky's brilliant colors. The floral border, bursting with intricately rendered blossoms and foliage, frames the landscape with an elegant and organic touch. The plate's surface is expertly glazed, giving it a lustrous sheen and a tactile quality that speaks to the skill of the artisans who crafted it. The plate's decoration is not only visually stunning but also a testament to the artistic and cultural heritage of Rouen and France during the late 19th century. This plate is not only a functional piece of tableware but also a work of art, a treasure to be admired for its beauty and historical significance. The intricate details and vibrant colors captured in this chromolithograph serve as a reminder of the rich artistic traditions that have shaped the world of pottery and porcelain.
