Note du spécialiste

Records preserved at the Sèvres archive note this vase as corresponding to one of a pair of vases entering the salerooms or magasin de vente le 19 février 1849 (Registre Vv 5, folio 22, no 39, prix de vente 600 francs chacun). The companion vase to this example which may have been sold separately depicts la cathédrale d'Alby [sic]". See Christie's, New York, 20 May 2008, lot 216 for a pair of vases of the same form, ordered by King Louis Philippe of France and delivered on the 13th of November 1845.
