In 1740, a modest porcelain factory was born, with the only asset being the brilliant whiteness of its paste. It soon enjoyed the unconditional support of Louis XV and was able to attract the best artists of its time. In less than 30 years, the Royal Manufactory of Sèvres revolutionised the art of porcelain and set the standard for European taste.
This book traces the history of the Manufacture and its development.
