The fullest account of his career is given by Savill, who records that.that he was one of first painters to work on hard-paste, and was recorded painting Chinoiseries from 1772. The gobelet litron was named after a circular measure, usually wooden, which was used for dry goods, such as corn and flour. It had been introduced at Vincennes before October 1752 when a stock inventory was take, and three sizes were in production in 1753. This is a gobelet litron of the third size. The strange caillouté decoration in gold is reminiscent of a ground pattern executed in gold with blue dots on the sides of a cup in the Royal Collection, and Sir Geoffrey de Bellaigue noted another cup with comparable decoration and chinoiserie scenes bearing the date letter for 1779 and painted by Asselin in a private collection (See Documentation, Bellaigue, 2009). reference term-14265 adlib-term-14265 b9f6d73e-26ce-3588-a519-976c2cc93f7f Louis XVI reference term-113750 adlib-term-113750 9c94e435-9cde-38f2-b190-3a9ff2a77005 literal France France country Sèvres reference term-32652 adlib-term-32652 82d8ae3b-f165-395c-ba93-dfa1c282b7be glaze reference term-37627 adlib-term-37627 254febfe-0021-3e45-89a7-d57ba40044c7 hard-paste porcelain reference media-200407 adlib-media-200407 c99a66b1-5641-343a-9e06-1cca6202cd3f jpeg aa/aa35/C_3_2006_3_200812_mfj22_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 1024 width pixels 969 1616277546749 1 image jpeg aa/aa35/mid_C_3_2006_3_200812_mfj22_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 528 width pixels 500 1616277546749 1 image jpeg aa/aa35/C_3_2006_3_200812_mfj22_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 1024 width pixels 969 1616277546749 1 image jpeg aa/aa35/preview_C_3_2006_3_200812_mfj22_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 264 width pixels 250 1616277546749 1 image 0 media image reference media-2490778209 portfolio portfolio-media-2490778209 68ba6dc7-07db-3aa6-9626-d99e5c1771da jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/809/large_C_3_2006_4_200812_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 1536 width pixels 1024 1529202757000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/809/mid_C_3_2006_4_200812_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 750 width pixels 500 1529202757000 1 image C.3-2006_4_200812_mfj22_mas.tif 1529202757000 1 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/809/preview_C_3_2006_4_200812_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 375 width pixels 250 1529202757000 1 image pyramid tiff portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/809/C_3_2006_4_200812_mfj22_mas.ptif 1 height pixels 5120 width pixels 3413 1529202757000 1 image 1 media image reference media-3139389242 portfolio portfolio-media-3139389242 e2b5108d-5102-39dd-9b62-afe8b597548f jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/803/large_C_3_2006_1_200812_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 1498 width pixels 1024 1529202752000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/803/mid_C_3_2006_1_200812_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 731 width pixels 500 1529202752000 1 image C.3-2006_1_200812_mfj22_mas.tif 1529202752000 1 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/803/preview_C_3_2006_1_200812_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 366 width pixels 250 1529202752000 1 image pyramid tiff portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/803/C_3_2006_1_200812_mfj22_mas.ptif 1 height pixels 4868 width pixels 3328 1529202752000 1 image 2 media image reference media-1534143159 portfolio portfolio-media-1534143159 89044d80-4baf-3e0b-8766-1d1afd75aa6b jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/804/large_C_3_2006_2_200812_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 1569 width pixels 1024 1529202753000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/804/mid_C_3_2006_2_200812_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 766 width pixels 500 1529202753000 1 image C.3-2006_2_200812_mfj22_mas.tif 1529202753000 1 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/804/preview_C_3_2006_2_200812_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 383 width pixels 250 1529202753000 1 image pyramid tiff portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/804/C_3_2006_2_200812_mfj22_mas.ptif 1 height pixels 4862 width pixels 3174 1529202753000 1 image 3 media image reference media-3371534572 portfolio portfolio-media-3371534572 e3bc6082-c19c-3c77-99de-947e2ae67987 jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/806/large_C_3_2006_3_200812_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 1506 width pixels 1024 1529202754000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/806/mid_C_3_2006_3_200812_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 736 width pixels 500 1529202754000 1 image C.3-2006_3_200812_mfj22_mas.tif 1529202754000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/806/preview_C_3_2006_3_200812_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 368 width pixels 250 1529202754000 1 image pyramid tiff portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/806/C_3_2006_3_200812_mfj22_mas.ptif 1 height pixels 4896 width pixels 3328 1529202754000 1 image 4 media image reference term-91165 adlib-term-91165 d22ea1ae-0f87-36a8-8ece-86eb0f380b42 cup gobelet litron history note Kate Foster Ltd., 9 Halkin Arcade, Motcomb Street, London, SW1N 8JT and 5 Market Road, Rye, East Sussex TN31 7JA, invoice 6733, dated 12th June 1987 reference agent-149638 adlib-agent-149638 7376d833-d0a7-3be0-916e-9c892b7a24d8 The Fitzwilliam Museum Ref.
