This pair of plates by C. Normand, dating from the late 19th century, showcases intricate designs typical of the Rococo style. Featuring motifs like stylized foliage, cherubs, and classical figures, these designs were likely intended for decorative purposes, perhaps as patterns for textiles, furniture, or architectural ornamentation. The delicate lines and playful symmetry exemplify the Rococo period's penchant for the whimsical and elegant. This work provides a glimpse into the decorative arts of the late 19th century, capturing the enduring fascination with classical motifs and the emphasis on beauty and craftsmanship.
