These rare urn-shaped Neoclassical vases were decorated by Charles-Nicolas Dodin, one of the major figure painters at Sèvres. An extremely versatile painter, he created chinoiseries (fanciful depictions of Chinese life), scenes after the Dutch painter David Teniers the Younger (1610–1690), mythological images, and pastoral subjects drawn from works by and after the French artist François Boucher (1703–1770). Dodin’s colors are often intensely saturated and luminous.
