Description
|
|
|
|
With vivid color photographs of 86 pieces—some filling two pages—this book showcases the longstanding achievements of the French porcelain factory Sèvres, focusing on its invention and creativity over three centuries. The opening section explores the beginnings of the factory in the 18th century, production under royal patronage, and the changes brought about by the French Revolution. The 19th-century section examines the classicism of the First Empire and the Restoration, the historicist style of the Second Empire, and art nouveau ceramics, followed in the next century by art deco pieces and the contemporary studio wares of Adrien Saxe and Richard Peduzzi.
