Vagabond Antiques
After the antique, Chiurazzi Foundry (Attributed to) Naples, second half of the 19th century Bronze head of a man (possibly Dionysus) Bronze on original Rosso Antico marble socle H 70 cm Provenance: private collection at Château De Pesselières, France Literature: Fonderia Chiurazzi, Napoli, catalogue n° 1 'Dionisio o Platone-Bronzo da Ercolano 1741' A finely cast bronze by the Chiurazzi Foundry, Naples, after the celebrated antique excavated at Herculaneum in 1741 and now preserved in the Museo Nazionale di Napoli (inv. 5618). The model is recorded in the Chiurazzi Foundry catalogue as 'n° 1 - Dionisio o Platone - Bronzo da Ercolano 1741', indicating both the foundry’s internal model number and the Naples museum inventory of the original. The figure’s soft modelling, elaborate curls and bound taenia are characteristic of Hellenistic representations of Dionysus, though early scholars, struck by the introspective expression, also proposed identifications with Plato or other philosophers. Modern scholarship accepts the Dionysian attribution. Chiurazzi held exclusive rights to reproduce works from the Naples collections, issuing casts directly from museum models for export to collectors and institutions across Europe and America. This example, with its even dark patination and original Rosso Antico marble socle, reflects the exceptional quality for which the foundry became renowned.
Heutink Ikonen
Year Icon (Menologion) Russia, late 19th century Egg tempera on gesso on linen-covered wood 35.5 x 30.5 cm Provenance: private collection, Germany This beautifully painted year icon (menologion) brings together the entire Orthodox liturgical year in a single composition. The twelve months are divided into separate sections, each depicting the saints and feast days commemorated throughout the calendar year. At the centre of the composition is the Anastasis (the Resurrection of Christ), surrounded by scenes relating to the Church’s movable feasts, including the Ascension and Pentecost, as well as scenes from Christ’s Passion. Along the edge are numerous venerated images of the Mother of God - each associated with its own feast day in the church year. This icon stands out for its unusually compact size. Despite its modest dimensions, the painter has succeeded in incorporating an exceptionally extensive iconographic programme without compromising on clarity or refinement. Hundreds of figures, scenes and inscriptions are depicted with remarkable precision and virtuosity. Thanks to its good preservation, even the smallest of details remain clearly visible.

He created one of the greatest collections of Antiquities for his villa on the Pincian hill in Rome. When certain highly acclaimed sculptures ended up in the papal collection or other important collections which he couldn’t acquire, he contented himself with having copies made. These weren’t full-size copies, but rather fine statuettes on a reduced scale, intended for his studiolo. His passion for antiquity is mirrored in the collection of small bronzes he had. He kept in his service an artist called Pietro da Barga; a sculptor known to us only by the references in cardinal Ferdinando’s inventory. One of the main characteristics of his bronzes is the green all’antica patina he used to resemble the surface of the newly discovered ancient Roman bronze statues. Not only did he make reduced copies of ancient roman sculpture, he also used famed Renaissance models like Giambologna’s Mars or Michelangelo’s standing Christ.

NYX Ring 18kt yellow gold, diamonds, spessartine and red enamel At the heart of the Nyx Ring, a vivid natural spessartine appears almost illuminated from within, its intense orange colour emerging against deep red enamel, natural white diamonds and 18kt yellow gold. Named after Nyx, the primordial Greek goddess of night, the ring explores the tension between darkness and light.
