"Souvenir" is a small silver plaque created by Pierre-Denis Chaumont between 1789 and 1792. The plaque features a delicate design of flowers and foliage, intricately rendered in relief. The work demonstrates the high level of craftsmanship in silverwork during the late 18th century, a period characterized by neoclassical styles. The object's small size suggests it might have been intended as a personal keepsake or a decorative element for a larger object.
