Description
Set of ten earthenware plates featuring architectural views of Paris
A set of ten round plates made of fine earthenware, with a printed design in shades of brown and black, depicting architectural and monumental views (palace courtyards, colonnades, triumphal arches, classical façades, gardens). Each scene is captioned beneath the image (the inscriptions are currently difficult to read in the photographs, but likely correspond to Parisian or French monuments: the Cour du Louvre, the Palais-Royal, a triumphal arch, public gardens, etc.). Marli plate featuring a continuous frieze of foliage and small stylised flowers.
This series is similar to the ‘Vues de Paris’ or ‘Monuments de Paris’ plate sets produced in the 19th century
