Description

The ovoid body of this antique Sevres style porcelain vase depicts the Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte receiving Queen Louisa of Prussia at Tilsit on 6 July 1807. This scene is after a painting by Nicolas Louis Francois Gosse (French, 1787-1878), which was completed in 1837 and is part of the collection at the Chateau de Versailles, Paris.

The verso shows a pastoral chateau scene. The porcelain vase is mounted in elaborate Empire style ormolu cast into the shapes of eagles and laurel leaves.
