Bruno Geyer, Austrian, active late 19th century to early 20th century|Ceramic Art Company, Trenton, New Jersey
1904–5 · Porcelain · The American Wing
Cabinet plates decorated with portraits, flowers, or birds and richly bordered in raised gold paste were fashionable in late-nineteenth-century Paris and Vienna. Bruno Geyer, a Viennese artist about whom little is known, specialized in portraits after European paintings. Geyer decorated this plate, probably originally part of a set of twelve, for the Ceramic Art Company. Marks on the reverse indicate that the plate was retailed by Tiffany & Co.
