A hundred years old, and the garden still feels alive. This antique Limoges plaque is signed by Muville — a French porcelain artist whose hand-painted pieces on Limoges blanks are highly sought by collectors. The subject is a Regency-era couple in a garden: he holds a grouping of birds; she stands in a long, flowing, uncorseted gown that suggests the ease of the period. Flowers and trees fill the foreground and background, all in luminous pastels, the whole composition framed in a thick swirled gold border. The plate is unmarked but research confirms all Muville plaques came from the Limoges region of France.
