Kirjallisuus

Yusupov porcelain was produced for less than 20 years (from 1815 to 1831), but left a noticeable mark in the history of Russian porcelain. It was created not for commercial purposes, but to replenish the collection of the prince and gifts to noble persons. This ensured the highest artistic level of Arkhangelsk porcelain, comparable in quality to the best examples of Western manufactories.

Nikolai Borisovich Yusupov took up porcelain at the age of 60, when he left government service and acquired an estate in the village of Arkhangelskoye near Moscow. At that time, the prince owned a large collection of works of art, and in the past he traveled extensively in Europe and headed the Imperial Porcelain Factory.
