About this Piece

This fine late 19th-century German hand-painted porcelain plaque depicts an elegant Rococo interior billiards scene rendered with refined academic detail. The composition captures a lively moment among aristocratic figures, beautifully modeled with soft facial expressions, delicate fabric folds, and subtle atmospheric depth. Rich yet harmonious color transitions and precise enamel work demonstrate the skill of a highly trained European workshop painter. The plaque is mounted within an ornate giltwood frame that complements its period character and presentation. Measuring approximately 8 inches wide, the plaque presents as a sophisticated cabinet-size example of Continental porcelain artistry from the 1875–1890 period. See less
