\r\n
\r\nThe Manufacture Nationale de Vincennes, predecessor to the renowned Manufacture Royale de S\u00e8vres, excelled in producing soft-paste porcelain of exceptional quality during the 18th century. Among its most refined creations are the elegant Cuvettes \u00e0 Fleurs, oval flower vases that combined purity of form with rich pictorial decoration.
\r\nThe present piece is a remarkable example of this model, executed in 1755 and attributed to the painter Andr\u00e9-Vincent Vieillard (1717\u20131790), one of the manufactory\u2019s most prolific and celebrated artists. Vieillard, who worked at Vincennes and later at S\u00e8vres between 1752 and 1790, was particularly esteemed for the delicacy of his landscapes and mastery in depicting figures (Whitehead, 1998, p. 41).
\r\nHis distinctive mark, consisting of a line accompanied by dots, is documented in Carl Christian Dauterman\u2019s reference work on 18th-century S\u00e8vres marks (Dauterman, 1986, p. 154). A very similar example, also painted by Vieillard, is part of the collection at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City, having been gifted by the manufactory to Madame de Courteille (S\u00e9ret, 2014, p. 84).
\r\nThe bleu lapis ground, with its extraordinary chromatic depth, served as the perfect backdrop for the painted reserves, where Vieillard demonstrated his full mastery in portraying bucolic scenes and landscapes. The gilt Rococo cartouches, with their intricate ornamental complexity, showcase the technical virtuosity achieved by Vincennes artisans during this period.
