拍品描述 翻译
Description: Pair of George III Giltwood Four-Light Wall Light/Appliques Each suspended from a tied-ribbon cresting above a shelf and a pierced backplate carved throughout with musical instruments and centered by a violin and bow above four scrolling candlearms and a pair of cymbals, another, larger shelf, crossed horns and a wind instrument, ending in tassels. Height 6 feet (1.82 m), width 18 inches (45.7 cm), depth 11 inches (27.9 cm). Provenance: Stair & Co., New York These finely carved giltwood four-light appliques are inspired by 18th century French designs for trophies, especially those of the architect Jean Charles Delafosse (1734-1789). At the age of thirteen, Delafosse was apprenticed to the carver Jean-Baptiste Poulet, later working as an architect and designer and rising to the position of professor of drawing at the Académie de Saint-Luc in 1771. This is the same year that he published the second edition of his Nouvelle Iconologie Historique ou Attributs Hièroglyphiques, (first published in 1768), a book that contained engraved architectural and ornamental designs using emblematic representations of the virtues, vices, the four continents, military forces, arts and sciences, laws and countries, all presented for use on furniture and decoration. Pictures frames, candelabra, urns, tables, ceilings and chimneypieces are designed in the latest neoclassical Louis XVI style. In England, the Prince of Wales, later George IV, his architect, Henry Holland, and his circle of francophile friends were influential in promoting French neoclassical taste. Holland became involved with the reworking of Carlton House in 1783 when it was presented to the Prince when he came of age. Holland spent the next two decades working there as architect and designer. In 1785, Horace Walpole described Carlton House in a letter to the Countess of Upper Ossory: ''We went to see the Prince''s new Palace in Pall Mall; and were charmed. It will be the most perfect in Europe. There is an August simplicity that astonished me. You cannot call it magnificent; it is the taste and propriety that strike. Every ornament is at a proper distance, and not one too large, but all delicate and new, with more freedom and variety than Greek ornaments; and though probably borrowed from the Hotel de Condé and other new Palaces, not one that is not rather classic than French. . . I forgot to tell you how admirably all the carving, stucco and ornaments are executed.''; see Dorothy Stroud, Henry Holland, 1966, p. 67. Much of the decoration at Carlton House was based on French neoclassical sources and was furnished with French furniture, ormolu-mounted porcelain and clocks. Thomas Sheraton included ''A View of the Prince of Wales''s Chinese Drawing Room'' and another of ''A View of the South End of the Prince of Wales''s Chinese Drawing Room'' in his Appendix to the Cabinet-Maker and Upholsterer''s Drawing Book, 1793, pls. 31-32. In plate 31, a pier table by the French maker Adam Weisweiler, ma?tre-ébéniste (1778-1820), is shown between two windows. This is but one of many examples of French furniture bought by the Prince of Wales that survives in the Royal Collection. The present wall light/appliques relate to four trophies, circa 1795, which are possibly from the Old Throne Room, Carlton House, and now in the Throne Room at Buckingham Palace; see John Martin Robinson, Buckingham Palace The Official Illustrated History, 2000, p. 69. A single example is illustrated, H. Clifford Smith, Buckingham Palace, 1931, London: Country Life Ltd., fig. 141. The Noel and Harriette Levine Collection
