About the Item

An exquisite 19th-century circular porcelain plaque, finely hand-painted and signed by Félicie Palade Bonnal, a renowned French porcelain portraitist celebrated for her delicate, emotionally resonant miniatures. The central scene portrays two women in period costume, captured with exceptional detail, soft brushwork, and emotional warmth. The plaque is framed by a vivid cobalt blue border adorned with raised gilded foliate scrolls in the Louis XVI taste. It is housed in its original carved wooden frame with a ribbon crest. The frame shows visible age-related wear and a structural crack, which does not detract from the decorative value or display appeal of the piece. ⸻ About the Artist: Félicie Palade Bonnal was an accomplished 19th-century French porcelain painter, known for her refined portraiture and subtle color palettes. Her signed works are highly sought after by collectors and have been featured at major international auction houses, including Christie’s, underscoring her lasting legacy in the decorative arts. Diameter of the plate: 21.5 cm (8.46 inches) Frame dimensions: approx. 25 x 30 cm
