Soft-paste porcelain decorated with green ground colour, painting in blue, several shades of green, brownish-yellow, dark pink, pale purple, brown, grey, and black enamels, and gilding. Circular, with shaped rim of six large arcs alternating with six small, gently sloping border and shallow well. There is a hole for suspension in the footring, which has been broken away at this point. The white centre is painted in polychrome with two birds; one stands on the ground with its left leg raised and its head turned sharply to the left; behind it to the left is a sprouting tree stump, on a branch of which is perched a second bird which looks downwards, its wings spread behind it. In the foreground to the left there is a plant with blue daisy-like flowers and in the background to the right, hazy trees. The rim has an apple green ground decorated in gold with oeil-de-perdrix. There is a gold band round the inner edge of the rim and a dentilated band round the outer edge.

Patterned grounds with tiny white circular reserves and gold oeil-de-perdrix decoration introduced about 1765 were associated with the painter Taillandier, and when they had a green ground were referred to as 'fond Taillandier vert' or 'fond pointillé vert'. The decoration in the centre of the dish suggests strongly that it was painted much later than 1769 which its date letter indicates. The design resembles, but not exactly, the plates from the Eden Service of 1787, which is decorated with birds from the comte de Buffon's Histoire naturelle des oiseaux. reference term-113159 adlib-term-113159 4bdfb4a7-b307-3dfa-a3d6-8ada4683271e 18th Century, third quarter reference term-106853 adlib-term-106853 25492eb4-1164-35eb-8dce-3601486f3415 19th Century reference term-113750 adlib-term-113750 9c94e435-9cde-38f2-b190-3a9ff2a77005 literal France France country Sèvres presumed lead-glaze reference term-107733 adlib-term-107733 00160189-e3ce-3796-a88b-5aa8d6c808c4 lead-glaze reference term-37637 adlib-term-37637 89b09133-dc0a-3a88-bd40-5aef1ad30ecb soft-paste porcelain Diameter cm 24.3 Height cm 2.5 reference media-67133 adlib-media-67133 dc15cee1-93e4-3dae-8db5-1448446396de jpeg aa/aa23/C_42_1961.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 593 1616281103276 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/mid_C_42_1961.jpg 1 height pixels 641 width pixels 500 1616281103276 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/C_42_1961.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 593 1616281103276 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/preview_C_42_1961.jpg 1 height pixels 320 width pixels 250 1616281103276 1 image 0 media image reference media-67132 adlib-media-67132 cbb96f7a-24fe-3ae0-9044-41e186416c0c jpeg aa/aa23/C_42_1961_20_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 664 1616277982856 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/mid_C_42_1961_20_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 572 width pixels 500 1616277982856 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/C_42_1961_20_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 664 1616277982856 1 image jpeg aa/aa23/preview_C_42_1961_20_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 286 width pixels 250 1616277982856 1 image 1 media image reference media-1035251005 portfolio portfolio-media-1035251005 7f39f411-4812-357f-9b52-2320f3d8df23 jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/975/large_C_42_1961_2_200903_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 1536 width pixels 1024 1529202883000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/975/mid_C_42_1961_2_200903_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 750 width pixels 500 1529202883000 1 image C.42-1961_2_200903_mfj22_mas.tif 1529202883000 1 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/975/preview_C_42_1961_2_200903_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 375 width pixels 250 1529202883000 1 image pyramid tiff portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/975/C_42_1961_2_200903_mfj22_mas.ptif 1 height pixels 5120 width pixels 3413 1529202883000 1 image 2 media image reference media-1779675433 portfolio portfolio-media-1779675433 64193699-92f8-3dcc-b0af-78c956da7965 jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/974/large_C_42_1961_1_200903_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 1536 width pixels 1024 1529202883000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/974/mid_C_42_1961_1_200903_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 750 width pixels 500 1529202883000 1 image C.42-1961_1_200903_mfj22_mas.tif 1529202883000 1 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/974/preview_C_42_1961_1_200903_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 375 width pixels 250 1529202883000 1 image pyramid tiff portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/436/974/C_42_1961_1_200903_mfj22_mas.ptif 1 height pixels 5120 width pixels 3413 1529202883000 1 image 3 media image reference term-34935 adlib-term-34935 b6750733-fe79-33fc-b39a-c296fcd223b4 plate object name reference term-42307 adlib-term-42307 68d69907-2c4d-308e-bcd9-ed5757354632 dinnerware category factory name assiette history note Probably Christie's, 20th February 1934, Catalogue of Chinese and Continental Porcelain...The Property of a Gentleman, lot 68.
