RUSSIAN ART NOUVEAU SILVER SNUFFBOX WITH CLOISONNÉ ENAMEL. 6TH MOSCOW JEWELLERS’ ARTEL RUSSIA, MOSCOW, 1908–1917

RUSSIAN ART NOUVEAU SILVER SNUFFBOX WITH CLOISONNÉ ENAMEL. 6TH MOSCOW JEWELLERS’ ARTEL RUSSIA, MOSCOW, 1908–1917

A vivid and artistically coherent example of late Russian Art Nouveau, this silver snuffbox was produced by the craftsmen of the 6th Moscow Jewellers’ Artel between 1908 and 1917. The octagonal form of the body emphasises the architectural clarity of the object and provides a structural framework for a complex, multi-layered decorative programme characteristic of Moscow enamel production in the early twentieth century.The body and hinged lid are adorned with high-quality cloisonné enamel on silver, executed with finely applied silver cloisons and a rich, carefully balanced colour palette. The decorative composition combines geometric bands, vegetal motifs and symbolic representations of natural elements. The central motif on the lid depicts a mythical flower-tree bearing fruits and berries, as if emerging from the edge of an epic forest. Its symmetrical growth establishes the vertical axis of the composition and alludes to themes of life cycles, growth and fertility.In the corner zones and along the lateral registers, an ambivalent system of undulating and spiral motifs unfolds. In the upper areas these forms evoke the celestial sphere, clouds and rain-bearing skies, while in the lower registers they transform into images of meadow grasses, bodies of water and fertile earth. The side panels alternate scenes of vegetal flowering and aquatic symbolism, complemented by bands of diamonds, diagonals and spirals. The chamfered corners are articulated with dynamic diagonal compositions set against a light enamel ground, enhancing the sense of rhythm and movement.The interior surface of the snuffbox is fully gilded.Hallmarks: Mark “6MA”, 6th Moscow Jewellers’ Artel; State assay mark indicating silver fineness “84”, corresponding to the period 1908–1917; additional technological mark. On the inner rim of the bezel: a pair of French import marks in the form of swans within ovals.Dimensions: Height 2.5 cm; length 8 cm; width 6.6 cm.Weight: 130.0 g.Condition: Good.Provenance: Private European collection.

Winter Landscape. River Bank in Winter. Boris Bessonov (1862-1934)

Winter Landscape. River Bank in Winter. Boris Bessonov (1862-1934)

The superb landscape River Bank in Winter by Boris Bessonov transports the viewer to the enchanted world of winter nature, filled with an atmosphere of cold and silence. Nature here is frozen in the moment, shrouded in a blanket of soft snow, which shimmers with pink reflections of the setting sun. The light of this warm evening sun heralds the end of winter, adding a special emotional depth to the painting. The main focus of the work is the river, calmly flowing among the snow-covered banks. Its surface, like a mirror, reflects the slender firs that rise above the water like majestic giants, filled with power and tranquility. The snow covering their branches creates a feeling of a winter dream of nature, in which every movement seems to be slowed down by the frosty air. The sky, painted in soft blue, pink and grey tones, adds a sense of approaching spring, promising the imminent awakening of nature. This work by Bessonov enchants with its realism and masterful use of light and colour. The artist managed to convey not only the winter beauty, but also the subtle transition from cold to warm, from winter to spring. The painting evokes feelings of peace and tranquility, recalling the cyclical nature of time and the eternal harmony of nature. Boris Bessonov (1862–1934) Oil on canvas. Dimensions: 63 cm x 80 cm. First half of the 20th century. Provenance: Rayner MacConnell, Bond Street, London
