This small, square Jardinière, created between 1748-1800 by French artist Fidelle Duvivier, is a fine example of 18th-century decorative arts. The ceramic piece is adorned with delicate hand-painted scenes, possibly depicting rural landscapes. This Jardinière, now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, showcases Duvivier's talent for capturing the beauty of nature in miniature. The intricate details and delicate brushstrokes make it a charming and elegant piece, perfect for displaying a small bouquet of flowers.
