This painting shows a quiet scene of the Sèvres factory entrance. The artist's background is interesting - he was trained by his father to paint on glass and porcelain. He also learned photography from a director of the Sèvres factory, which is probably how he got to know the place so well. You can learn more about the artist's style by looking up Louis-Rémy Robert.
