Rochard Artist Easel with Eiffel Tower Painting Limoges Box Figurine
An artist's easel holds a fresh painting of the Eiffel Tower, as though a painter had just stepped away from the canvas along the Seine. In fitting style, this Rochard porcelain Limoges box was itself painted by hand in Limoges, France.
Plein Air in Paris
Painters have set up their easels along the riverbanks and in the squares of Montmartre for generations, trying to capture the light of Paris. This piece puts the most famous landmark in the city right on the canvas, a little painting within a painting.
The Painter's Corner
Set it on a shelf in a home studio among brushes and paint tubes, on a desk beside a sketchbook, or with other Paris pieces in a curio cabinet. It suits an art teacher, a watercolor class instructor, a gallery owner, or a friend who signed up for a painting holiday in France. Art school graduates and Sunday painters alike will enjoy the nod to their craft.
