"Black Polylobed Papier Mache Tray Napoleon III In The Image Of Genghis Khan"
The interest and fascination for the Orient under the Second Empire is represented here by the great Mongol Genghis Khan in the attitude of a conqueror on his horse for a charming five-lobed tray. The imagery is made using the so-called transfer technique, which was very fashionable at the time; small pieces are regularly found: boxes, cases, goblets, etc., while pieces like this tray are much rarer.Shipping in France and internationally contact me for terms
