Rennes, 1780s

Cupboard with richly carved walnut stand, Rennes, 1880s. Rack characterized by a hat with a double arch and a pair of doors, each equipped with two panels with blown glass; the riser has undergone a modification over time, consisting in the removal of the shelves acting as plate racks to convert it into a bookcase. Lower body front with top and under-top band moved like a crossbow, the latter housing the two drawers, and pair of doors with carved tiles. Paneled sides, rounded uprights, wavy feet ending in a curl. Oak interior. On a decorative level we find fantastic animals such as phoenixes, Greeks, curls, rocaille-style motifs, phytomorphic and floral elements, rosettes and bows, all high quality carvings characterized by a calligraphic line. The piece of furniture is part of the Breton production of the Rennes area at the end of the 18th century, with a style derived from the arrival of the Parisian ornamental sculptors and the local interpretation of the "Bérain" style ornaments. Signature of the cabinetmaker and date of execution partially legible ("Faiet Par M(oi) I. Bap(tiste) Depo(uez) 178(?)"), placed in the reserve in the center of the riser. Jean Baptiste Depouez is among the best craftsmen of Rennes at the end of the century, knowing a certain number of furniture signed by him. With the exception of a piece of furniture dated 1799, we find, on all the furniture signed Depouez, the same panel decorated with a wreath of flowers, love knots and lambrequins, identifiable here on the front of the body doors. Finally, it is the terminal decoration called "cul-de-lampe", recognizable in the element repeated each time in the center of the low crosspieces, that attracts attention, because this very particular motif can be considered as a further personal signature of the cabinetmaker.
