Description
Sèvres sous Louis XVI, Le premier apogée, de John Whitehead, Ed. Courtes et Longues, 24 cm x 28 cm, relié avec 144 pages couleurs - Edition Anglaise
La porcelaine de Sèvres est un ouvrage de 144 pages couleurs très richement illustré qui présente la fabrique de Porcelaine de Sèvres sous le règne de Louis XVI et la Révolution.
En 1769, la Manufacture de Sèvres a conquis l'Europe, mais elle ne produit pas encore de porcelaine en pâte dure. Elle vient tout juste d'en découvrir le procédé de fabrication : cela bouleversera ses modes de production, son organisation et la gamme des objets proposés.
L'enjeu est grand mais le soutien de Louis XV puis de Louis XVI est indéfectible, jusqu'à ce que survienne la Révolution...
