專家說明

In 1796, Empress Catherine II commissioned porcelain services as part of the dowries of her two eldest granddaughters, Alexandra and Elena, the daughters of future Emperor Paul I. Both services are variants of the Cabinet Service, painted with Italianate views within polychrome floral borders on a white ground. In 1799, Paul I ordered similar services for his two younger daughters, Maria and Catherine.

Grand Duchess Elena Pavlovna (1784-1803) was married in October 1799 to Hereditary Prince Friedrich Ludwig of Mecklenburg-Schwerin (1778-1819), the eldest son of Friedrich Franz I, Grand Duke of Mecklenburg-Schwerin.

Comparable oval serving dishes from the Dowry Service of Grand Duchess Elena Pavlovna are in the State Hermitage Museum, St. Petersburg. For further examples, see N.B. von Wolf, (ed. T.N. Nosovich), Imperatorskii farforovyi zavod, 1744-1904, St Petersburg, 2008, pp. 165-166.
