EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-finished chromolithograph depicts a plate from the renowned French pottery town of Moustiers, showcasing a captivating scene of the sea goddess Salacia and her attendants, the naiads and mermaids. The central image is surrounded by a lush border of foliage, adorned with the heads of Neptune and Salacia. The intricate details of this plate are a testament to the exceptional craftsmanship of the Ris Paquet workshop in Paris during the late 19th century. The plate, which is part of the "Histoire Générale de la Poterie Ancienne Française et Étrangère Glacée" series, is a masterpiece of the chromolithographic process. Chromolithography, an innovative printing technique that emerged in the mid-19th century, allowed for the production of detailed and vibrant images through the use of multiple lithographic stones, each coated with a different color. In this image, Salacia, the Roman goddess of the sea, is depicted in the center, surrounded by her nymphs and mermaids. Neptune, the Roman god of the sea, is also present, represented by his head in the border of the plate. The scene is filled with playful cupids and other sea creatures, adding to the overall sense of merriment and celebration of the sea. The plate's intricate design and beautiful colors make it a stunning example of the artistry and craftsmanship of the Moustiers pottery tradition. The hand-finished details add to its unique character, making it a valuable and cherished piece of decorative art.
