JACOB PETIT PERFUME FLACON FRANCE, MID-19TH CENTURY

JACOB PETIT PERFUME FLACON FRANCE, MID-19TH CENTURY

A rare and highly expressive perfume flacon crafted in polychrome porcelain with abundant gilding, characteristic of the production of the Jacob Petit manufactory. The composition is distinguished by its complex architectural form: a hexagonal body set within an openwork base supported by sculptural feet in the form of stylised swans, richly gilded. The relief decoration with Rocaille motifs and finely modelled details reflects the aesthetics of Neorococo, so fashionable in France during the reign of Louis-Philippe and the Second Empire.The body panels are adorned with vibrant hand-painted floral bouquets and ornamental cartouches in насыщенных green and deep purple tones. The rich enamel palette is combined with matte and burnished gilding, creating an effect of festive opulence. The upper section retains its removable stopper with a wide disc-shaped finial and a gilt neck. Inside, a glass reservoir for perfume is preserved.The piece embodies the defining features of Jacob Petit: eclectic form, theatrical silhouette, and bold use of gilding and contrasting polychromy. The underglaze blue mark in the form of a stylised “JP” monogram confirms the attribution to the manufactory.Marks: Underglaze blue “JP” mark to the base.Dimensions: Height approximately 25 cm.Material: Porcelain, overglaze enamel decoration, gilding, glass insert.Condition: Good. Minor wear to the gilding consistent with age.

STATE PORTRAIT OF EMPEROR ALEXANDER I RUSSIA, FIRST HALF OF THE 19TH CENTURY

STATE PORTRAIT OF EMPEROR ALEXANDER I RUSSIA, FIRST HALF OF THE 19TH CENTURY

A waist-length state portrait of Emperor Alexander I of Russia (1777–1825), depicted en face. The monarch is shown in full military dress with richly decorated epaulettes and orders, including the star of the Order of St. Andrew the First-Called and other highest decorations of the Russian Empire. His right hand rests upon a book of laws, symbolising the supremacy of law over autocracy and echoing the Emperor’s image as a reformer. The composition features an architectural background with a column and heavy red drapery, enhancing the grandeur of the scene.The pose and composition closely follow the famous lifetime portrait of Alexander I painted in 1814 by Russian artist Roman Maksimovich Volkov (1776–1831) during the Emperor’s visit to London, and engraved by British master Henry Hoppner Meyer (1782–1847). This iconography was widely disseminated in Europe and Russia through engravings and served as a model for official and state portraits such as this one. The presence of the book of laws directly reflects Volkov’s original concept as transmitted through Meyer’s engraving, underlining the reformist symbolism of the image.The lavish gilded frame is surmounted by a sculptural finial in the form of the Imperial Crown, suggesting an official or institutional origin. The crown finial shows traces of early restoration.Dimensions: 90 × 72 cm (framed: height 130 cm, width 94 cm)Material: Oil on canvasCondition: Good preservation, with natural patina of age.Provenance: Probably created for an official hall or administrative institution in the first half of the 19th century, based on the engraved portrait by Volkov/Meyer of 1814.
