On 20 May 1756 a plateau du Roy of the 2nd size decorated with ‘Enfans camayeux chaires colorées’ with a cup saucer and sucrier similarly decorated costing 144 livres was delivered to M. Bazin. (Archives MNS Vy 1 fol. 125v). The vignette in the centre of this tray was taken from a print by Jean-Baptiste Le Prince (1734-81) 'La Chasse' (after the lower part of a panel . 'La Chassse aux oiseaux et l'Horticulture' painted by Boucher between 1751 and 1755 in Madame de Pompadour's boudoir at the chateau de Crécy, or 'Les Jeunes Oiseleurs', also after François Boucher. (See Documentation, Jean-Richard, 1978). The scene was also executed in polychrome.This tray has been associated with those described in the factory's archives as plat long uni or plateau ovale in production by 1752. Rosalind Savill, however, believed it to be the form known as a plateau dejeuner du roi first recorded in 1754, and usually supplied with one or two cups and saucers and tea bowl. This example conforms to the first and larger size of two, stated by Savill to be 28.3 to 29 x 21 cm, which is less common than the second size. A model for the tray survives at the factory.referenceterm-106496adlib-term-106496bd563695-7339-3178-a8c4-25189907099318th Century, Mid#referenceterm-15538adlib-term-15538e4001da7-ed48-3271-a6fb-c7f54095a1adLouis XVreferenceterm-113744adlib-term-113744da105475-9705-3ee7-94ad-24892e6217d4literalFranceFrancecountryliteralVal-de-MarneVal-de-MarneregionVincennesreferenceterm-129470adlib-term-1294708353db27-fba9-33c1-94a1-f268fd2a2d21literalFranceFrancecountryliteralVal-de-MarneVal-de-MarneregionParispresumed lead-glazereferenceterm-107733adlib-term-10773300160189-e3ce-3796-a88b-5aa8d6c808c4lead-glazereferenceterm-37637adlib-term-3763789b09133-dc0a-3a88-bd40-5aef1ad30ecbsoft-paste porcelainHeightcm2.4Lengthcm28.3Widthcm21referencemedia-53538adlib-media-535383063e6ba-8a79-31c6-8e05-3d536251d7c0jpegaa/aa23/C_11_1961_20_281_29.jpg1heightpixels585widthpixels76016162475042111imagejpegaa/aa23/mid_C_11_1961_20_281_29.jpg1heightpixels385widthpixels50016162475042111imagejpegaa/aa23/C_11_1961_20_281_29.jpg1heightpixels585widthpixels76016162475042111imagejpegaa/aa23/preview_C_11_1961_20_281_29.jpg1heightpixels192widthpixels24916162475042111image0media
