EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a magnificent sauce boat, specially crafted for the esteemed table of Mme. de Pompadour during the late 18th century in Paris. Adorned with her regal coat of arms, this exquisite piece epitomizes the opulence and grandeur that defined the Rococo era. Created by the skilled hands of Francois Joubert, a renowned silversmith from that time, this sauce boat is a testament to his mastery and attention to detail. The delicate silver and parcel-gilt design exudes elegance and sophistication, reflecting the refined taste of its owner. Mme. de Pompadour herself was an influential figure in French society as she served as mistress to King Louis XV. Known for her impeccable style and patronage of the arts, she played a significant role in shaping the cultural landscape of her time. Displayed at Musee des Arts Decoratifs in Paris today, this remarkable artifact offers us a glimpse into an era characterized by lavishness and artistic expression. Its presence evokes images of sumptuous banquets held at Mme. de Pompadour's table where fine cuisine was savored amidst an atmosphere steeped in luxury. As we admire this stunning piece captured through Bridgeman Images' lens, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its historical significance within the context of art movements such as Rococo and Late Baroque.
