See Michel Bloit, Trois Siecles de Porcelain de Paris, Paris, 1988, p. 101 for a very similar centerpiece attributed to Achille et Bloch as part of a garniture. Also see Pierrette Jean-Richard, L'Oeuvre Gravé de François Boucher dans la Collection Edmond de Rothschild, Paris, 1978, vol. I, p. 259, fig. 1031 for an engraving of the present Boucher subject.
