Exhibition "Porcelain Way" Automatic translate

From October 31 to November 23, the All-Russian Museum of Decorative, Applied and Folk Art will host the exhibition "Porcelain Way", dedicated to the 185th anniversary of the Dulevo plant. In 2017, Matthew Sidorovich Kuznetsov, a prominent representative of the Kuznetsov dynasty, and 205 years from the date of the founding of the Kuznetsov case, will turn 170 years old.

The history of the largest porcelain company began in 1812 with a small enterprise in the center of the famous folk ceramic center - Gzhel, located in the vicinity of Moscow. Twenty years later, the Kuznetsovs left the industry and integrated themselves into the process of capitalist formation of Russian industry, achieved incredible successes - became monopolists, and headed the porcelain and faience industry in Russia. The Kuznetsovs opened factories in different parts of the country - in Livonia (Riga), in the Vladimir, Kharkov, Yaroslavl provinces, acquired branded productions, such as the Auerbach faience factory in the Tver province and the famous Gardner factory. They accompanied the process of strengthening and expanding their own business by conquering markets - they opened Trading houses and shops throughout Russia, participated in all major fairs and exhibitions. The products of the Kuznetsovs have conquered the main eastern markets of the world, found a place even in the homeland of china - in China, and were awarded high awards at world shows. Such success was an indicator of the coordinated and hard work of the Association Board, the management of factories and the many masters of enterprises.

Kuznetsov porcelain has become synonymous with mass production, but individual products are striking in the perfection of handmade work and a good folk sense of harmony and beauty. The assortment was socially oriented, exactly matching the tastes of different population groups: peasant, urban (bourgeois), tavern, and oriental. Requests of the city were diverse, separate groups of citizens demanded style. For them, the Kuznetsovs produced elegant products in the Art Nouveau style and luxurious in the Russian style, whose adherent was the owner of the company, Matvey Sidorovich Kuznetsov.
