Provenance

Taxile Doat, Sèvres, France; University City, MO [1]
1911 -
Saint Louis Art Museum, purchased from Taxile Doat [2]
Notes:
The Taxile Doat porcelains accessioned in 1911 were made in France at Doat's private studio in the town of Sèvres, and assembled by him as a study collection of form and technique. Doat brought the collection to University City, Missouri, intending to sell the works to Edward G. Lewis for the Museum of the Art Academy of the American Woman's League. In 1911 when Lewis closed the Art Academy and Doat was planning to return to France, the collection was instead sold to the City Art Museum.
