Limoges Collector Plate: French Landscape Scene by Michel Julien, 1987

This Limoges collector’s plate, titled "Une Journée au Bord de l’Eau" (A Day by the Water), is a limited edition piece created in 1987 by renowned French artist Michel Julien. As the first edition in the Paysages de France (Landscapes of France) series, it features a tranquil riverside scene with a picturesque village backdrop, capturing the idyllic beauty of the French countryside. On the edge of the plate is the artists signature.

The back of the plate is inscribed in French, translating to: “One of my greatest challenges was to capture the play of light on water, reflections, and the tranquility of a moment." This poetic sentiment by Julien perfectly encapsulates the serene atmosphere depicted.

Crafted in Porcelaine de Limoges, this plate is marked with a unique edition number and was fired for only 150 days, making it a rare find for collectors. With a diameter of 8 3/8 inches, it is ideal for display as part of a curated collection, adding a touch of French elegance to any home decor.
