Two-handled bowl in painted polychrome enamel with gold highlights. Base decorated with the arms of Bishop Guillaume Le Boux argent, a chevron azure, accompanied in chief by two boar's heads erased sable, and in base by a bloodhound's head gules accolated argent; wing decorated with foliate scrolls in relief in reserves; under the foot, landscape with castle and rider; all around, rosettes and dots on a black background and gilded scrolls. Limoges, attributed to Jean-Baptiste Poyllevet, late 17th century H. 4.7 cm - L. 18.3 cm (some restorations, slight enamel chips, notably at the foot and rim) Jean-Baptiste Poillevet or Poyllevet, also known as Jean II Poyllevet, belonged to a family of Limoges enamellers. Practicing in the 1690s, he seems to have produced little. His style is characterized by a generous use of enamel, as shown here by the rinceaux and rosettes in high relief, and by the recurrent use of a cord motif visible under the heel and delimiting the reserves. Guillaume Le Boux, the patron or recipient of this lovely bowl, was the son of a boatman. His life was marked by a remarkable upward social mobility: he began his career as a college sweeper, and went on to become a Capuchin, an Oratorian, a parish priest and then Bishop of Dax from 1659 to 1666. In the same year, he was elevated to the see of Périgueux. It was when he asked for this last dignity that his friends would have said that "Boux was born a beggar, that he had lived a beggar, and that he wanted Périgueux (to die a beggar)". He remained bishop of Périgueux until his death in 1693. It was probably at the end of this episcopate that this bowl was made.
