Pair Of French 19th Century Plaques Of Napoleon III And His Wife Eugenie

About the Item

A handsome and elegant pair of French 19th century patinated Bronze plaques of Napoleon III and his wife Eugenie, signed J. Peyre. This very unique and finely detailed pair was created by Napoleon's bronzier and have their names inscribed around each profile. Each are facing each other having Eugenie on the left and Napoleon III on the right. All original rich patina throughout. Jules-Constance Peyre was born in Sedan, and having trained under the famous animalier sculptire Bayre he joined the Sevre porcelain factory as a modeller (1845-1848) and went on to become Chief Designer (1856-1871). During some kind of sabbatical in the early 1850s he took obe of the factory's most distinctive material formulations, bisque porcelain, and developed it into a much more durable and versatile synthetic marble and bronze.
