The SaintCloud porcelain manufacture in France holds a unique position in the history of European porcelain: it was the first in Europe to discover the secret of producing softpaste porcelain, thereby breaking the monopoly of China and Japan and playing a seminal role in the development of porcelain production in Europe. This beautiful book, which documents the manufactures production and traces its technical and stylistic evolution, celebrates one of Frances enduring contributions to the decorative arts and culture of Europe.The book features ten essays by leading scholars of French porcelain that examine not only the history of the SaintCloud manufacture but also its influence, aesthetics, patronage, and reception. The essays are supplemented by reproductions of some 250 examples of SaintCloud porcelain from the Muse des Arts Dcoratifs, Paris, and other museums around the world, along with documentation for each one. The book also includes examples of contemporary works of faience from Delft, porcelain imported from China, and related paintings and works on paper that provide a broader context in which to consider the works produced at SaintCloud.Published in association with the Bard Graduate Center for Studies in the Decorative Arts, New York
