Lot Essay

A number of plates from this service were in the traveling exhibition, Napoléom, An Intimate Portrait. See the exhibition catalogue (P.J. Chalençon, B. Topping and R. H. Etling, Coral Gables, 2005, p. 56) for an illustration of the plates, noting their historical provenance to the Talleyrand family and the Castle at Valençay.
