    FREDERICK THE GREAT‟S PORCELAIN DIVERSION: THE CHINESE TEA HOUSE AT SANSSOUCI Tania Solweig Shamy Department of Art History and Communication Studies McGill University, Montreal October 2009 A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of doctor of philosophy. ©Tania Solweig Shamy 2009 Abstract This thesis signals a new approach in the study of the Chinese Tea House at Sanssouci. It argues that Frederick the Great‟s exotic pavilion, although made of sandstone and stucco, is porcelain in essence. The garden building reflects the many meanings of this highly valued commodity and art form in the privileged society of the king and his contemporaries. The pavilion is unique in that it was inspired by the type of sculptural ornament designed to decorate the eighteenth- century table of the nobility. The Tea House is a thematically integrated structure that demonstrates the influence of porcelain on interior décor and architecture. The designation of the garden building as a Gesamtkunstwerk acknowledges the blending of architecture, painting, and sculpture; characteristics shared by porcelain centerpieces. They exemplify the intermediality associated with the development of eighteenth- century porcelain and the interpretation of Frederick‟s pavilion. ii Résumé Cette thèse annonce une approche nouvelle dans l‟étude de la Maison de Thé Chinoise à Sans-Souci. Elle soutient que le pavillon exotique de Frédéric Le Grand, fait de pierre et de stuc, représentait intrinsèquement la porcelaine. Ainsi, cette construction de jardin refléterait de fait les sens multiples accordés par la société privilégiée du Roi et de ses contemporains à cette commodité de luxe et à cette forme d‟art.

Ce texte se compose donc à la fois du compte-rendu des résultats atteints par l’ Établissement au regard des objectifs posés dans son contrat de performance 2008-2010 et du rapport d’activité au sens classique du terme. L’ ensemble permet d’avoir une lecture à deux niveaux à la fois pour ce qui concerne les voies de progrès que l’ Établissement se propose de suivre et son activité au quotidien. Cette activité a été très riche cette année avec la tenue de deux expositions majeures, une fréquentation stable et en renouvellement, la fi n du chantier de l’ Opéra royal et sa réouverture à l’automne 2009, et une modernisation rapide des services d’accueil du public et des fonctions d’accompagnement administratif avec notamment la mise en œuvre d’un nouveau système informatisé de gestion des ressources humaines. 7 Rapport d’activité 2009 – Établissement public du musée et du domaine national de Versailles sommaire général SECTION 1 – rapport de performance 2009 11 note introductive 13 tableau récapitulatif des indicateurs de performance 14 Section 2 – Activités détaillées des services en 2009 41 partie 1 – la direction de la conservation du musée 43 avant-propos de béatrix saule 45 missions
