This is a wonderful, old, hand painted Limoges portrait plate. It appears from the writing on the reverse of the plate that the lady depicted was E. Gartside, as is written in gold script. The 9 1/2" plate also appears to have been signed by the artist with the initials LCS, and dated 1898. The condition is very good, with extremely little wear to the hand painted finish and gold accent trim. Also, on the reverse, is a tight hairline that runs about 3/4" to the outer rim. It does not run through to the front of the plate, and actually went unnoticed until I prepared this description. A closeup photo is provided for your inspection. The plate is also marked with the Limoges porcelain manufacturer's mark for Jean Pouyat, identified as Mark #5, a green underglaze white ware mark with FRANCE, in use from the 1890s to 1932.
