Created at the renowned Manufacture du Faubourg Saint-Marcel in Paris, this exquisite work was designed by Antoine Caron. Stepping into the scene depicted, one is transported to a lavish banquet set within an opulent interior. The tablecloth drapes gracefully over a grand dining table adorned with sumptuous food and drink containers.
