35mm color slide of a porcelain mark for a Bouillard cup and saucer. The mark is for Jean-Baptiste Tandart aîné (the elder; 1729–1816, active 1754–1800 or 1803), who was one of the “most skilled flower-painters” of his era (Eriksen and De Bellaigue 1987, 96; dates from Savill 1988, 3:1070; Tardy 1981, 566). The number 37 is handwritten on the slide.
