Antique St Therese of Lisieux portrait on Limoges porcelain plaque.
In thick wooden frame.
St Therese and her roses are beautifully detailled using a 'paste on paste' technique. It is so delicate.
Artist signature at the bottom: 'Leduc' and 'Limoges'. Adrien Leduc was active in Limoges between 1919 and 1954.
This plaque could come from the Camille Tharaud workshop like the other two I have in my shop but I can't be sure as I can't see the back of the plaque. His workshop produced a lot with this technique.
The plaque is in good condition with only two or three very tiny imperfections I could spot. 
The frame has some scratches, imperfections and small chips at the front.
The card backing was nailed to the frame. More nails were added by a previous owner and it damaged all the sides of the frame.
Framer's shop label at the back. 
Black card is worn.
Metal loop at the back to hang on the wall.
Size of frame: 25.7 x 20.8 x 3.3 cm / 10.11 x 8.18 x 1.29 inches 
Size of plaque (visible part at the front): 13 x 8.1 cm / 5.11 x 3.18 inches
Weight: 600 grams.
