EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Illustrated London News showcases three exquisite objects from the 'Exhibition of Ancient and Mediaeval Art' held at the Society of Arts in London during 1850. The elaborate salt-cellar and candlestick, adorned with intricate engravings, are part of the esteemed collections of Baron Lionel de Rothschild and Sir A. Rothschild, respectively. The beautiful white ewer, gracing the table before them, is the property of Mr. Magniac. These three pieces are fine examples of the renowned Ware of Henry II. of France, a coveted tableware from the 16th century. The secret of creating this ornate and decorative tableware has long been lost to history, making these surviving pieces all the more precious. The candlestick and ewer display the distinctive Tudor and Renaissance influences that characterized the art of the time, while the salt-cellar showcases the intricate engravings that were a hallmark of this exceptional tableware. These objects, once displayed in the prestigious exhibition, now stand as testament to the rich artistic heritage of France during the reign of King Henry II, also known as Henri II of France or Henri II, Duke of Angouleme. The print offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to the Victorian era and the grandeur of the 16th century.
