Additional Information

Notes historical bibliographic

The appliques are an expression of the Viennese Biedermeier taste, which established itself following the fall of Napoleon and with the beginning of the Restoration period. Clearly a derivation of the Empire style, this new style is characterized by a revival of wavy shapes and leafy decorations, which, in the North European Biedermeier version, is translated into a typically Nordic research of rigor. The group, also exceptional for its number, is matched by the Biedermeier Reifenluster always belonging to our collections. The same origin also confirms their realization as lighting for the same environment, as furnishing accessories.

Style: Biedermeier (1815-1848)

The Biedermeier style is a style that characterizes German and Austrian furniture between approximately 1815 (Congress of Vienna) and 1848 (beginning of the revolutionary movements).
Its main features are essentiality and functionality, and the home destination.
Biedermeier first took on a derogatory connotation: the word derives from "Bieder", or "simpleton" and from "Meir", one of the most common German surnames at the time and was the name of a "simpleton" character in a comedy of Ludwig Eichrodt.
This term meant the conservative petty bourgeois, concerned only with his own family reality.
Even if in a derogatory way, the term represents exactly the new socio-political situation in which the bourgeois is forced or resigned to renounce the yearnings for democracy and freedom.
The center of life therefore becomes the home, no longer characterized by unbridled luxury but comfortable and practical.
Consequently, Biedermeier furniture are functional, comfortable and easily achievable products.
The style is an evolution of the Empire style towards greater simplification, without ornamental and antique elements, lighter, linear and curved shapes, lighter colors.

Portrait Of A Scottish Monarch Oil On Canvas 19th Century

Oil on canvas. Intense and high quality, the painting depicts a monarch of the royal house of Scotland. Around the portrait, in a painted oval frame, there are some writings: the name Rober(t) appears at the top left, the title Rex at the bottom left and the abbreviation Scot, which stands for Scotorum, on the right; the writing at the top right is not identifiable, but it seems to be an acronym. The man portrayed wears a hat and a coat adorned with ermine fur, which is considered the noblest fur, reserved for royalty. He wears a golden pendant around his neck, which depicts two leaves with the fruit of the thistle, which, in heraldry, symbolizes Scotland. The writing and the pendant therefore refer to a Robert of Scotland, probably from the dynasty that reigned in the fourteenth century. The portrait was however executed in the romantic nineteenth-century period, probably using some ancient engravings for inspiration. Restored and relined, it is presented in a frame in style.

ARTOTT0000724

The Tragic Return Oil on Canvas Late 1800s

Oil on canvas. It probably depicts a tragic anti-Semitic event. On the right, a wounded soldier in Russian uniform is witnessing the dramatic scene of a slaughtered family while the rabbi is preying for them. The broken window and the upside down drawers make clear that the killers broke into the house. On the left of the mirror, there is a Jewish writing that may suggest the location. The word may be translated as 'Ciro' and may be referring to the areas of Georgia and Azerbaijan near the Kura (river flowing from Turkey to the Caspian Sea, known as 'Ciro' in 1800s). The painting, restored and relined, is presented in a frame of the 1800s.
