• Attributed to Charles-Louis
  Attributed to Charles-Louis Clérisseau (French worked in Italy 1721-1820) "A Chimneypiece in the Neo-Classical Style" c. 1770s/1780s ink and two tones of gray wash on cream-colored laid paper (perhaps with an even paler uniform gray wash) unsigned; watermark(s) partially obscured by repair tapes applied to verso but with letters "...M A..." and "O...M" visible; inscribed on bottom margin with scale representing 6 "Palmi di Genova" (in which 1 Genoese oncia [inch] = 2 Genoese palmi; 1 palmo = 248 mm.); above it in the mouth of the fireplace another scale in different units. Provenance: Roman art market mid-20th century; James R. Lamantia Jr. New Orleans and New York. Note: This extremely beautiful and historically important drawing is a precocious and diagnostic precursor of the Neo-Classical movement. Its principal frieze (in fictive bas-relief) represents Apollo and Minerva at the center with the flanking figures of the Nine Muses carrying their identifying attributes; Juno and Jupiter confront each other in the upper right-hand square panel and two other divinities occupy the left; Mercury and a sister goddess crown the tall reliefs to the sides. This design is strikingly notable for its purity simplicity and sobriety: it displays no other ornaments at all apart from the chaste moldings of a large egg-and-dart and a small bead-and-reel around the mouth of the fireplace a simple beading around the side panels a brief leaf-and-tongue under the square elements and a foliated ovolo and smaller cove (separated by another small bead and by a blank frieze) in the crowning entablature of the mantel shelf. Such conspicuous restraint coupled with such paramount reliance on delicately detailed sculptural forms alone mark this design as a truly startling contrast for example with the Rococo exuberance and Classical complexity of the most celebrated engravings of chimneypieces to be engraved in the preceding decade the Camini of G. B. Piranesi (1720-1778)-issued as 70 etched plates in 1769. Clérisseau a Parisian won the Prix de Rome in 1749 and stayed in the Eternal City for almost twenty years returning to Paris only in 1767 to become a member of the Académie Royale. While in Italy he became a close friend of Piranesi's; he was also tutor to a variety of Northern architects most importantly to Robert (1728-1792) and James Adam (1734-1794) on whose famous-even epochal-style Clérisseau had a fundamental and all-pervasive influence (as witnessed profoundly in this drawing). Clérisseau himself is best known in the United States as the co-designer with Thomas Jefferson of the Virginia State Capitol at Richmond (1785-99) based on the "Maison Carrée" at Nîmes. Clérisseau had become the preeminent authority on such Provençal structures with his Antiquités de la France: Monumens de Nismes (1778); and his long experience of southern France provides a plausible reason whereby his drawings (some 1100 of which are concentrated in the Hermitage St. Petersburg) might have included this sheet measured as it is in Genoese units. Genoa only officially adopted the metric system as of 1 March 1847 so this drawing's citation of Genoese palmi is at once appropriate and unhelpful with regard to dating (for which its watermark is also inconclusive). What can be said is that it very perfectly epitomizes the dawn of Neo-Classicism in Europe and as such it is an artifact of the highest importance. References: Thomas J.

• CLOISONNé ENAMEL CANECa. 1880-Large
  CLOISONNé ENAMEL CANECa. 1880-Large Shippo enamel knob of a modified Milord shape with a round and flattened top and an integral, long and tapering body profusely decorated with various signs, emblems and blooms on a dark, almost black background with the traditional clouds. The handle is executed in the ancient and traditional Far-Eastern love for the detail perfection and distinguishes with a pleasing blend of enigmatic and unusual earth tones. It comes with a striking brass collar, dark, almost black rosewood wood shaft and a horn ferrule. With the great popularity of canes and growing demand for decorative items, walking stick manufacturers of the western world, European as well as American, began to import cane handles and other items from the Orient in the second half of the 19th century. Japan and China were major suppliers for excellent carvings and great metalwork like this cane. H. 3 ½” x 1 ½”, O.L. 40” Cloisonné is a way of enameling an object, (typically made of copper) whereby fine wires are used to delineate the decorative areas (cloisons in French, hence cloisonné) into which enamel paste is applied before the object is fired and polished. The Japanese characters used for the word shippo (the Japanese term for enamelware) mean “Seven Treasures” which is a reference to the seven treasures mentioned in Buddhist texts. Although these treasures may vary, they generally included at least some of the following: gold, silver, emerald, coral, agate, lapis lazuli, giant clamshell, glass and pearl. The Japanese applied this expression to the rich colors found on Chinese enamel wares and later to those they made themselves.
