1793 – 1802, original is housed in the National Ceramics Museum in Sèvres, France

The dark purple, a color rarity in Europe’s 18th century, is extremely difficult to obtain on porcelain. The Sèvres workshops responded to the challenge in the last decade of the century and portrayed these « Chinese scenes » by the painter Le Guay in gold enhanced medallions. The decorative theme of the stage curtain emphasizes the renewed inspiration and conveys a theatrical effect to the pictures represented.
