EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored copperplate engraving by Andrea Freschi, after Antoine Cardon, depicts a Chinese potter in the act of creating a delicate porcelain cup on a potter's wheel. The potter, dressed in traditional Chinese attire, intently focuses on the clay as his skilled assistant provides the power for the wheel. In the background, another worker arranges freshly made cups on a board, ready for placement in the oven. The intricate details of the potter's tools, the wheel, and the cups are beautifully rendered, providing a glimpse into the artistry and craftsmanship involved in the production of Chinese porcelain. The image is taken from the seminal work "China, Its Costumes, Arts, Manufactures, etc." published in London in 1824 by Henri-Leonard-Jean-Baptiste Bertin and Jean Baptiste Joseph Breton. The engraving, a testament to the meticulous techniques of the time, offers a fascinating window into the world of Chinese pottery and the people behind its creation. The porcelain, known as tse ki, was renowned for its beauty and finesse, making it a highly sought-after commodity in Europe and beyond. This image invites us to appreciate the artistry, skill, and tradition that went into the creation of each exquisite porcelain cup.
