ELEONORE ESCALLIER (1827-1888) 

Eleanor Escallier was a pupil of Jules-Claude Ziegler. She was one of the first provincial women painters to move to Paris and is best known for her paintings of flowers and fruit.

She began exhibiting her paintings of flowers at the Paris Salon of 1857, where she sent her paintings Vase of flowers  and Iris  and exhibited until 1880.

In his Salon of 1857, Theophile Gautier  found her "less brilliant, but more realistic than Saint-Jean " she brings design and style to a genre where so far we have found only the brilliance of tone. " For panels exhibited at the Salon of 1861,  Pond  and  Garden  , he wrote that they have "this discipline and sureness of design that characterize M  me Escallier. "

She won a medal in 1868.

To meet her financial needs after the war of 1870, Theodore Deck, with whom she collaborated, obtained for her the position of painter and decorator at the Sevres factory. 

FULLY MARKED ON THE BOTTOM WITH FACTORY GREEN MARK & IMPRESSED MARK (SEE PICTURES 2,5,6)

The plate also has a very fine impressed inscription (it is impossible to make a photo) in french "Plat laisse inacheve par Mm Escallier 20 Juin 1888" which I believe translates as "Plate left unfinished by Mm Escallier on 20 of June 1888". According to my research it is the date of her death. I believe that this may be her last work for Sevres which was not completely finished.  

OVERALL CONDITION – SEE PICTURES. NO CHIPS OR RESTORATIONS. Some micro cracks on enamel as I believe finally it should have few more layers to finish it.
