    Greek Independence - Paillart et Hautin faience factory in Choisy-le-Roi, circa 1825: "Philhellenic" plate in fine earthenware, decorated in grisaille on a yellow background with a scene from the Greek War of Independence waged against the Ottoman Empire between 1821 and 1829: it depicts "Pacha taken prisoner," in other words Ali Pasha, governor of Epirus, whose rebellion against the Ottoman Empire was one of the causes of the Greek Revolution.

    These popular objects recall the extent of the Philhellenic movement among the French population at the time, from the most modest households to Chateaubriand and Victor Hugo; the decorations, based on lithographs by Karl Loeillot, glorify the victories of the Greeks against Turkish troops and the heroism of Greek women.

    The plate measures 21.7 cm in diameter. It is in excellent condition, with no damage and only minor signs of wear.

    Pick-up available in Montpellier, Arles, Avignon, Marseille, and the surrounding areas. Shipping is available in carefully packaged packaging.
