The porcelain factories of Berlin, Sèvres, and Vienna achieved a remarkable level of both artistic and technical skill in the first half of the 19th century, and the quality of painted decoration practiced at these three factories at that time has never been surpassed.
This exhibition will bring together approximately 95 extraordinary examples from these three European porcelain manufactories and will illustrate both the rivalry and the exchange of ideas and styles between the factories that resulted in some of the most remarkable porcelain ever produced.
The exhibition was organized by the Prussian Palaces and Gardens Foundation Berlin-Brandenburg in cooperation with the Twinight Collection, New York.
