A CHINESE CANTON ENAMEL FAMILLE ROSE 'CHERRY PICKERS' CHOCOLATE CUP AND TREMBLEUSE STAND . Qing Dynasty, 18th Century. The cup with a tall body painted with two cartouches depicting an European couple, the man up a ladder, picking fruit and passing it to his companion, all on a white ground with floral sprays, the saucer formed as a large lobed shell with decorative rocaille borders to the rim and around the centre, 23cm across. (2) 清十八世紀 廣東銅胎畫琺瑯繪外國人像盃碟 The design on the exterior of the bowl is taken from a painting called "The Cherry Pickers" by the French painter Antoine Baudouin (1723-1769). The painting was popularised through an engraving by Nicolas Ponce (1746-1831), which inspired European porcelain manufacturers to copy the scene. The same scene occurs on Chinese famille rose porcelain made for export to European markets. Painted enamel on copper is significantly more complex to make than porcelain and the present piece is exceptionally rare. **Due to Covid-19, London Chiswick Auctions is operating a skeleton staff working remotely.
