White background, the center of the plate is decorated with a radiant stylized plant motif, in green and gold, evoking acanthus leaf decorations. On the rim is in green monochrome, decorated with female masks, foliage, and antique decorations interspersed with six oval medallions representing various landscapes, a windmill in a rural landscape, a waterfall in the mountains, a wooden bridge over a river, a wooded scene with a body of water, a small country house, and a river view with trees at dusk, each framed with a gold net. Gold nets on the waterfall and on the edge.Dimension(s): Diam. 22.3 cm,Condition(s): PERFECT CONDITION,Period: DIRECTOIRE / CONSULATESnow landscapes are rare on Paris porcelain at the beginning of the 19th century. They do not correspond to the classical decorations of the time, nor to the decorative uses, which favor bucolic, idealized and colorful scenes. In addition, this type of decoration requires mastery of subtle plays of whites, grays, cold blues and shadows. This requires great finesse of execution, as well as a desire to play on very soft or low-contrast tones - which goes against the more vibrant and colorful tastes in vogue in Parisian porcelain of this period.
