| CINDY SHERMAN has created this Limoges porcelain tureen set in a limited edition after the original design commissioned by Madame de Pompadour (nee Poisson) in 1756 at the Manufacture Royale de Sevres. Sherman's image of herself as Madame de Pompadour has been transferred onto porcelain through a complex process which requires up to 16 photo-silkscreens. Each tureen and platter is silkscreened and painted at Ancienne Manufacture Royale, fired on four different occasions, and then individually signed and numbered. This edition, which has been published by ARTES MAGNUS, is available in the traditional 18th century colors of apple green, rose, royal blue or yellow, and is limited to 25 in each color version. |
