Gien faience "BR Canta Galle Libertatem" plate, 1860-1871
Cock-a-doodle-doo! At the dawn of the Gien faience factory, founded in 1821 by Thomas Edme Hulm, this plate comes from a custom service (personalized according to the customer's request).
This plate features the term "Canta Galle Libertatem," a Latin phrase translating to "Sing, Cock, Liberty!" a republican symbol surrounded by royal symbols such as the fleur-de-lis and Baroque floral arabesques, a historical symbolism of this mid-19th century period, divided between hopes for a stable and free republic and against the backdrop of the Ancien Régime and monarchical tradition.
