LARGE SALON VASE WITH FLORAL BOUQUETS. ERNST AUGUST LEUTERITZ GERMANY, MEISSEN, SECOND HALF OF THE 19TH CENTURY

LARGE SALON VASE WITH FLORAL BOUQUETS. ERNST AUGUST LEUTERITZ GERMANY, MEISSEN, SECOND HALF OF THE 19TH CENTURY

A large museum-level salon vase produced at the Meissen Porcelain Manufactory after a model by the distinguished sculptor and modeller Ernst August Leuteritz. The monumental form, rooted in Neo-Renaissance and Neo-Baroque traditions, is conceived as an elongated baluster set on a profiled circular foot with a broad, stable base.The vase is constructed in two parts and displays a pronounced architectural silhouette. The high neck with a richly articulated rim is decorated with an ornamental frieze and a sculptural “pearl” moulding. Two powerful scroll handles, accentuated with gilded mounts, create a ceremonial and symmetrical rhythm. The lower body and base are enriched with finely modelled acanthus leaves, lavishly highlighted with gilding and executed with exceptional precision.The body is covered in a deep royal cobalt glaze, characteristic of Meissen’s prestigious works of the nineteenth century. On the central reserves, finely painted polychrome floral bouquets depicting roses and chrysanthemums are rendered in a highly accomplished overglaze technique. The painterly treatment reveals subtle tonal gradations, delicate modelling of petals and foliage, and a refined chromatic balance. Rich gilding frames the composition and enhances the overall impression of opulence and decorative splendour.Marks: Underglaze blue crossed swords mark of the Meissen Porcelain Manufactory; first quality mark.Dimensions: Height: 60 cm. Width: 35 cm. Depth: 35 cm.Material: Porcelain. Underglaze and overglaze painting. Cobalt glaze. Gilding.Condition: Good. Minor signs of age consistent with period. No chips or cracks.

PLAYING WITH CATS. ALEXANDER RIZZONI (1836 - 1902) RUSSIA - ITALY, SECOND HALF OF THE 19TH CENTURY

PLAYING WITH CATS. ALEXANDER RIZZONI (1836 - 1902) RUSSIA - ITALY, SECOND HALF OF THE 19TH CENTURY

An intimate genre composition defined by a subtle interplay of light and shadow, characteristic of Alexander Rizzoni’s artistic circle. Within the dim interior of what appears to be a vegetable cellar, a young boy is depicted playing with several cats. Concealing a bundle of turnips behind his back, he teases a cat perched upon a worn barrel. A narrow shaft of light penetrates through a small window, illuminating the child’s gesture and animated expression, while the warm ochre and brown tonalities enhance the atmosphere of humble domesticity.Despite its apparent simplicity, the scene carries a nuanced layer of social observation consistent with Russian Realism of the second half of the nineteenth century. The artist avoids overt dramatization, instead focusing on the quiet dignity of childhood. The modest amusements of impoverished youth become a reflection on resilience and innate vitality. Compassion and contemplative distance coexist within the composition, revealing the dual influence of the Russian academic tradition and Italian genre painting.Signed lower right.The work is attributed to Alexander Rizzoni (Alessandro Rizzoni, 1836 - 1902) on the basis of stylistic analysis, compositional structure, and painterly execution consistent with his genre works of the 1870s and 1880s.Dimensions: 41 x 33 cmMaterial: Oil on canvasCondition: Good. The paint surface is stable. Minor age-related wear consistent with the period.Provenance: Private European collection
