Royal Manufacture of Sèvres
Portrait of Louis XVIII in medallion
Imitation Wedgwood Biscuit
Signed on the shoulder of the sculptor Alexandre Brachard (active until 1827)
Dimensions: H. 16; L. 14.2 (cm.)

This bisque portrait on a textile background is framed in a gilded brass insert, itself surrounded by a beautiful turned blackened wooden frame. Everything is probably original.
This portrait of Louis XVIII is in tondo, the bust is turned to the left. The king is represented in uniform and wearing multiple symbols of power: orders of Saint-Louis, the Legion of Honor and the Holy Spirit. The quality of the work in the ornaments or the hair amply explains the reputation of the Manufacture at the beginning of the 19th century.
