Download or read book European Porcelain in The Metropolitan Museum of Art written by Jeffrey Munger and published by Metropolitan Museum of Art. This book was released on 2018-05-09 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Porcelain imported from China was the most highly coveted new medium in sixteenth- and early seventeenth-­century Europe. Its pure white color, translucency, and durability, as well as the delicacy of decoration, were impossible to achieve in European earthenware and stoneware. In response, European ceramic factories set out to discover the process of producing porcelain in the Chinese manner, with significant artistic, technical, and commercial ramifications for Britain and the Continent. Indeed, not only artisans, but kings, noble patrons, and entrepreneurs all joined in the quest, hoping to gain both prestige and profit from the enterprises they established. This beautifully illustrated volume showcases ninety works that span the late sixteenth to the mid-nineteenth century and reflect the major currents of European porcelain production. Each work is illustrated with glorious new photography, accompanied by analysis and interpretation by one of the leading experts in European decorative arts. Among the wide range of porcelains selected are rare blue-and-white wares and figures from Italy, superb examples from the Meissen factory in Germany and the Sèvres factory in France, and ceramics produced by leading British eighteenth-century artisans. Taken together, they reveal why the Metropolitan Museum’s holdings in this field are among the finest in the world. p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 14.0px Verdana}

Download or read book The S vres Porcelain Manufactory written by Beatrice Pannequin and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 1997-01-01 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The tumultuous years of the French Revolution left France’s prestigious decorative arts industries poised on the brink of ruin. It was not until after the fall of the monarchy and the ascendancy of the Consulat and Empire under Napoleon that they began to recover so that by the middle of the nineteenth century they stood at the pinnacle of their achievement. This book is the first in depth study of the renowned porcelain works at Sèvres during its virtual rebirth under the 47 year direction of the scientist, teacher, and administrator Alexandre Brongniart. Some 110 working drawings from the Sèvres Archive are reproduced here for the first time in color. They celebrate the high skill of the artists whose work often documented contemporary events in France. There are table services in the 'Egyptian' and 'Etruscan' taste as well as individual pieces that recall Napoleonic military campaigns. There are also exquisite Neoclassical decorations using motifs such as birds, butterflies, and insects that reflect the century’s early fascination with the natural sciences. The repertoire of nineteenth century eclecticism is evident in the output of Sèvres from the revival of Gothic and renaissance motifs to the outburst of naturalism. Eleven essays by leading authorities assess this dynamic period.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Entre 1750 et 1891, les manufactures de porcelaine contribuent à la réputation de l'industrie d'art tournaisienne. Soutenus par les dirigeants locaux et nationaux, François-Joseph Peterinck et ses descendants agrémentent les tables de pièces en polychromie chatoyante ou aux décors bleus. Au XVIIIe siècle, après une période de mise au point, où seules les fleurs polychromes sont représentées, le directeur artistique Michel-Joseph Duvivier développe quantités de nouveaux décors qui permettront à la manufacture tournaisienne d'accéder au rang des grandes manufactures européennes. Parallèlement à l'évolution du style et des décors polychromes, les fabriques tournaisiennes réalisent des décors bleus originaux, qui peu à peu s'imposent comme une marque de fabrique. D'abord inspirés des motifs chinois, les décors ronda, à la mouche ou à l'oiseau évoluent tout au long des XVIIIe et XIXe siècles. Les décors simples de guirlandes, déjà si contemporains, viennent rapidement décorer le bord des pièces et se déclinent à l'infini en guirlande Louis XVI, en épi, en anneau, en chenille, en laurier fleuri... Pour le plus grand bonheur des collectionneurs. Cet ouvrage, réalisé par un antiquaire et historien, spécialiste du sujet, fait le point sur l'histoire des manufactures de porcelaines de Tournai, notamment grâce aux archives familiales inédites des descendants de Peterinck. En outre, il offre, à tout amateur d'art, une iconographie abondante provenant principalement de collections privées.

Download or read book Porcelaine fran aise du XVIIIe si cle written by Antoinette Faÿ-Hallé and published by Charles Massin. This book was released on 2011 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "La porcelaine de Chine, blanche et translucide, a connu en Europe un engouement extraordinaire dès la Renaissance. Les princes voulaient en posséder, les céramistes voulaient en fabriquer. En Italie au XVIe siècle, puis en France au XVIIe siècle, ils inventèrent une admirable "porcelaine tendre" à laquelle, au XVIIIe siècle, la manufacture royale de Sèvres conféra un éclat inégalable. Le kaolin, indispensable pour fabriquer la "porcelaine dure", fut découvert dans le Limousin en 1768. Les manufactures se multiplièrent alors, surtout à Paris. Cet ouvrage raconte cette passionnante histoire. Son abondante illustration montre les étapes de la création, les inventions artistiques étonnantes de ces céramistes qui ont imaginé les innombrables métiers nécessaires à la fabrication de la porcelaine. Les décorateurs contemporains remettent sans cesse au goût du jour leurs innovations."--P. [4] of cover.
