"The Saint-Cloud porcelain manufactory in France holds a unique position in the history of European porcelain: it was the first in Europe to discover the secret of producing soft-paste porcelain, thereby breaking the monopoly of China and Japan and playing a seminal role in the development of porcelain production in Europe. This book celebrates one of France's enduring contributions to the decorative arts and culture of Europe."--BOOK JACKET. "Eight essays by leading scholars of French porcelain examine not only the history of Saint-Cloud but also its influence, aesthetics, and patronage."--BOOK JACKET.
