A MINTONS PATE-SUR-PATE OLIVE-GREEN SEMI-CIRCULAR PLAQUE, 'VERITÉ'
1877, impressed uppercase mark, signed L.(ouis) Solon
Emblematic of perception, finely painted and hand-tooled in white slip with a central nude beauty seated on a marbleized mound above theatrical masks, holding two hand mirrors before clustered putti, the triad at the left receiving the reflection with joy and enthusiasm, while the group at the right cowers in shame or defiantly rebels
15 in. (38 cm.) wide, within a velvet and giltwood frame
