"Portrait of the artist Sebastian Vranckx"
"Portrait of the artist Sebastian Vranckx"
Etching "Portrait of the Artist Sebastian Vranckx" mounted in a frame under glass, 1800.The author of the original: Anthonis van Dyck (1599 Antwerp - 1641 London), whose creative heyday came in the first half of the 17th century, art critics are often called the most talented and beloved student of Rubens. Fame came to him after a series of picturesque ceremonial portraits, thanks to which he was appointed court painter and won the patronage of the English king Charles I. Van Dyck wrote more than nine hundred works. And when he and his teacher decided to try to replicate these works and transferred them to metal, unprecedented popularity came to the master. Anthony van Dijk achieved perfection in the creation of engravings. He created his etchings on sheets of copper. The plate was covered with a special composition, and then a drawing was scratched on it with special tools. This made it possible to obtain prints of excellent quality - the ink applied to the finished etching was retained only in the etched depressions and was transferred to the paper during printing.

SILVER CHAMPAGNE COOLER WITH DRAGON HANDLES. EUROPE, LATE 19TH - EARLY 20TH CENTURY
SILVER CHAMPAGNE COOLER WITH DRAGON HANDLES. EUROPE, LATE 19TH - EARLY 20TH CENTURY
A luxurious silver champagne cooler, executed in finely chased and stamped decoration, represents an expressive example of ceremonial tableware of the Historicism period, incorporating elements of Neo-Renaissance and Neo-Baroque. The oval body with a subtle conical taper is articulated by vertical fluting, emphasizing the architectural clarity and elegance of the silhouette.The central cartouches are adorned with elaborate foliate ornament composed of acanthus scrolls and shell motifs. Beneath the rim runs a relief frieze with a Rocaille pattern. Particularly striking are the massive cast handles in the form of fantastical dragons with outstretched wings, curved necks, and finely modeled heads. The sculptural plasticity of the handles contrasts with the smooth polished surfaces of the body, creating a dynamic play of light across the silver.The base is profiled and enriched with engraved ornament, providing both visual balance and structural stability. The object was intended for cooling champagne bottles in ice and served as an essential element of formal table settings among the upper classes and aristocratic receptions.Marks: Require clarification following visual inspection and expert examination.Dimensions: Height 21.5 cm.Weight: 1380 g.Condition: Good. Natural silver patina, minor surface wear consistent with use. No deformations or losses of form observed.Provenance: Private European collection.

SILVER CABINET FIGURE OF ELISABETH OF BURGUNDY, KURZ J. & CO GERMANY, HANAU, TURN OF THE 19TH AND 20TH CENTURIES
SILVER CABINET FIGURE OF ELISABETH OF BURGUNDY, KURZ J. & CO GERMANY, HANAU, TURN OF THE 19TH AND 20TH CENTURIES
An elegant cabinet figure executed by the German silversmithing firm Kurz J. & Co in Hanau at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, representing a characteristic example of historicist silverwork of this period.The figure depicts Elisabeth of Burgundy in ceremonial court attire with a crown and sceptre, symbols of her dynastic status. The sculpture is distinguished by the carefully modeled drapery of the garments and a complex system of ornamental decoration executed in chased and finely engraved techniques. The silver surface is treated with particular attention to the texture of fabrics and decorative borders, typical of high-quality productions of the Hanau silversmith workshops. The face and hands are carved in ivory, creating a striking contrast of materials and enhancing the sculptural expressiveness of the figure.The work reflects a well-established tradition among the silversmiths of Hanau at the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century of drawing upon the iconography of European monumental sculpture and historical prototypes of the Gothic and Renaissance periods. Monumental memorial figures were thus translated into the format of cabinet-scale decorative sculpture intended for collectors’ interiors and cabinets of curiosities. In such works the monumental programs of historic monuments are reinterpreted through the medium of artistic silverwork, with particular attention devoted to the detailed rendering of historical costume, elaborate ornamental decoration and the architectural composition of the base, giving the sculpture the character of a miniature memorial monument.Marks: Maker’s mark of the workshop Kurz J. & Co, Hanau; German national silver hallmarks - crescent and crown, introduced after the establishment of the imperial hallmarking system in 1884; fineness mark “800”, indicating standard German silver of 800/1000 purity.Dimensions: Height 41.5 cm.Weight: 2041 g.Condition: Good collector’s condition.Provenance: Private collection, Hesse.Expert Report: Dr Daniel Suebsman, 2025.
