The Manufactories of Du Paquier in Vienna and of Carlo Ginori in Florence, 2005, pp. 78-79, fig. 1.The link between China, Vienna, and Florence is evident in the decoration and form of the present lot. 'Bird and branch'-type decoration was very popular at the du Paquier manufactory, as this plate, circa 1722-34, in the Metropolitan Museum of Art illustrates (object number 1995.268.280). The floral decoration of this coffee pot was inspired by Chinese famille verte porcelain dating from the Kangxi period (1662 to 1722). Famille verte wares were among the most prized east Asian wares and as such were copied early on by Europe's porcelain manufactories, of which Meissen's Brühl 'Garniture de Cheminée' from 1730 is another example (sold at Bonhams London, 7 December 2011, lot 76). The shape of the coffee pot, with its domed lid, tapered handle, elongated neck, and floriated bridge recall porcelain wares from the Ming Dynasty, such as this 16th-century ewer in the British Museum, London (inv. Franks.3123).Doccia's close ties with both the Meissen and Du Paquier factories influenced its decoration during the so-called 'first period' from 1737-1758, as artists such as Carl Wendelin Anreiter von Ziernfeld and Giorgio delle Torri were poached by the Marchese Ginori from these factories to work at Doccia.For more information on the influences of Viennese porcelain on Doccia, see Lehner-Jobst and d'Agliano, 2005, pp. 77-103.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

La stanza delle meraviglie di casa Colli, 2023, pp. 394-398, cat. 88From the large armorial service delivered in stages from October 1750 to the Marchesa Laura Isola of Genoa and decorated with the arms of the Marchesa and her husband, Marchese Francesco Marana. This was the second of two services delivered to the Marchesi and the first armorial production of the manufactory. The first service for the Marchese (delivered in 1749) is decorated with the blue-and-white 'a stampa' decoration and the pieces are of much simpler form. Then, in a letter dated 3 October 1750, the Marchesa orders another service '(...) non contento d'avermi favorito l'anno scorso di un servito abbondantissimo bianco, e Turchino, à voluo anche adesso aumentarlo (...)[not content with an abundantly white and turquoise (sic) service you kindly delivered to me last year, I would like to add to it now].'The service is referred to many times in correspondence between the Marchesa and Carlo Ginori: see Andreina d'Agliano (ed.), Porcellane Italiane dalla Collezione Lokar, 2013, no. 86; Johann Kräftner (ed.), Baroque Luxury Porcelain, 2006, pp. 291-292, nos. 116 and 177; and Alessandro Biancalana, Porcellane e Maioliche a Doccia, 2009, p.181ff. for excerpts from that correspondence.The service includes a variety of different elements in the decoration with variations in borders, ornaments around the central cartouches and scattered flowers. Olivia Rucellai notes that these differences are not only due to the various delivery times and painters, but also indicates its exclusive and experimental character as a fun and surprising gift sent by the manufactory's founder to a dear friend (Rita Balleri, Andreina d'Agliano and Claudia Lehner-Jobst (eds.), Fragili Tesori dei Principi - Le vie della porcellana tra Vienna e Firenze, 2018, pp.264-267).Another plate from the service was sold at Sotheby's, New York, 22 April 2020, lot 116, and a soup plate was sold in these rooms, 7 December 2022, lot 79A.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

La stanza delle meraviglie di casa Colli, 2023, p. 404-407, cat. 91d'Agliano, Andreina. Baroque Luxury Porcelain, 2006, p. 325.This teapot is one of exceedingly few wares made at Doccia with the lizard handle, another example being in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, inv. 46.103a, b.. The handle in the shape of a lizard, or salamander, is taken from Chinese wares, such as a Dehua wine vessel of the Kangxi period (1662-1722), published in Ulrich Pietsch, Meissener Porzellan und seine ostasiatischen Vorbilder, 1996, p. 73, cat. 13.The tradition of depicting lizards and salamanders in Chinese art originated in the Neolithic period (10,000-2,200 BCE) and Shang Dynasty (1600-1050 BCE), with jade and bone objects carved in the form of a slender-bodied, wingless creature covered in fish scales with only front legs. These forms were undoubtedly derived from depictions of the mythical loong, more commonly known as the Chinese dragon, and associated with rebirth, prosperity, and the element of water. Later on, Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) artists appropriated earlier Archaic bronze objects featuring lizard forms and translated them into porcelain (see a celadon ewer in the Art Institute of Chicago, inv. 1925.1467). Such objects eventually made their way to Europe, finding keen imitators among the continent's nascent porcelain manufactories, not least of which the Du Paquier concern in Vienna (see an early ewer modelled on a Ming prototype, circa 1725-30, in the Victoria and Albert Museum, inv. C.33-1957). A rare Du Paquier tankard with salamander handle is in the Museum für Kunst und Gewerbe, Hamburg (inv. 1914.289 a,b), and another was sold at Bonhams, London, 5 June 2013, lot 55 (ill.).The lizard handle and puce landscape decoration evidence the strong Viennese influence in Florence, executed to perfection in this example by the painter Giuseppe Romei (1714-1785) whose earliest recorded payment for works decorated 'in purpuro' is dated to May 1743 (Biancalana 2023, p. 407).For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Three Doccia porcelain white figural candlesticks, c.1765, with two turbaned figures and another wearing a tall hat and long robes, each holding spirally-ribbed cornucopias and standing on elaborate scroll-moulded bases, two figures 18cm. high; the other 19.5cm. high (3)Provenance: Property of the Late Hugo Morley-Fletcher MA FSA (1940-2022).Note: These rare models may have been adapted from the series of ‘orientali’ of twenty-four figures (in two sizes) which were based on the engraved illustrations in 'Recueil de Cent Estampes representant différentes Nations du Levant', published in 1714, and which were thought to have been modelled by Gaspero Bruschi. Two candlestick figures of similar type, with coloured enamel decoration, are illustrated by Leonardo Ginori Lisci, La Porcellana di Doccia, Milan, 1963, Tav. LVI. For an example of the more common candlestick figure of Pomona by Bruschi (after Permoser) in the British Museum, also holding a cornucopia, see Aileen Dawson, ‘Unexpected Treasures – Doccia porcelain in the British Museum’, in Amici di Doccia, Quaderni, no. III, 2009, p. 19, and for the figure of Pomona from which the Pomona figural candlestick was adapted, see Paolo Jurio, ‘L’Europa de porcellana’, in Amici di Doccia, Quaderni, no. XIV, 2021, p. 61. For three candlestick figures representing Spring, Autumn and Winter, each holding a cornucopia, see Andreina d’Agliano, Lucca and the Porcelain of the Ginori Manufactory, Lucca, 2001, p. 224.Condition Report: All the nozzles are lacking. Man with a turban: This figure appears to be in good condition.Woman with a turban: This figure is less good condition – there are breaks through her neck, cornucopia, feet and nearby support where the original components have been discreetly re-stuck (all the pieces are present). In addition, there is some chipping to her right thumb and fingers. Man with a tall hat: Overall this figure is in good condition with the exception of his left hand which has chipping to the thumb and fingers.

Italienisch -- 17. Jh. Wächter des Sultans im Kurzrock aus besticktem Goldbrokat.Aquarell und Gouache über Kohle auf Bütten, auf altem Sammlerkarton montiert. 24 x 18,6 cm. Wz. Fleur-de-Lis im Doppelkreis mit angehängtem Buchstaben V (Fragment; vgl. Heawood Nr. 1591). In der zweiten Hälfte des 16. Jahrhunderts entwickelte sich europaweit ein bemerkenswertes Interesse an Trachten, das sowohl historische als auch zeitgenössische sowie traditionelle Modelle umfasste. Diese Neugier manifestierte sich in einer zunehmend systematischen Publikationstätigkeit von Verlegern, die Bildbände mit detaillierten Kostümillustrationen aus aller Welt herausbrachten. Die Darstellung von Trachten diente hierbei nicht der Porträtierung individueller Figuren, sondern vor allem der geographischen und kulturellen Verortung. So entstand eine visuelle Topographie, die das europäische Wissen über „andere“ Kulturen über das Medium der Kleidung vermittelbar machte. Die Faszination für diese Mode wurde oft im Kontext von Reisebeschreibungen in den illustrierten Büchern vermittelt. Ein bekanntes Beispiel ist Nicolas de Nicolay, der in den Jahren 1551 bis 1552 Konstantinopel besuchte. Seine Erfahrungen fanden später Eingang in seine 1568 in Lyon veröffentlichte Publikation Les Quatre premiers livres des navigations et peregrinations orientales, ein Werk, das nicht nur Cesare Vecellio, sondern auch Künstler wie Jacopo Ligozzi beeinflusste.Melchior Lorck, einer der herausragendsten Trachtenzeichner des 16. Jahrhunderts, lieferte ebenfalls bedeutende Beiträge zur Trachtenillustration. Zwischen 1555 und 1559 reiste Lorck als Mitglied der Gesandtschaft unter Ogier Ghiselin de Busbecq nach Konstantinopel. Dort fertigte er vor Ort naturgetreue Zeichnungen an, die später als Vorlage für seine berühmten Holzschnitte dienten. Diese Werke waren prägend für die Entwicklung einer genuin europäischen Vorstellung des Orients.Auch spätere Künstler wie Abraham de Bruyn (Antwerpen, 1581) und Hans Weigel (Ulm, um 1577), ließen sich von den vorausgehenden Trachtenbüchern inspirieren, übernahmen Kompositionen und entwickelten diese weiter. Dabei verfeinerten die Künstler häufig Details, sie nahmen Elemente der Vorlagen auf, transformierten sie und schufen dadurch eine eigene künstlerische Sprache. Jacopo Ligozzi etwa erweiterte seine Serie von Figuren des Osmanischen Reiches (Florenz um 1580/85) durch das Hinzufügen von Tieren und Fantasiewesen, was den Darstellungen eine zusätzliche Ebene der allegorischen Bedeutung verlieh.Die prächtigen, farbenfrohen Aquarelle Ligozzis lassen sich als zentrale Quelle für die hier vorliegenden Zeichnungen identifizieren (Los 6513-6515), da sie in vielen Details und in der Auffassung der Figuren übereinstimmen. Das Wasserzeichen deutet auf eine Entstehung unserer Zeichnungen um das Jahr 1670 hin oder geringfügig später. Die anhaltende Rezeption von Ligozzis Arbeiten zeigt sich auch in der Porzellanmanufaktur Doccia, die 1737 in Sesto Fiorentino gegründet wurde. Um 1750 beauftragte der Gründer Marchese Carlo Ginori zwei venezianische Maler, die Ligozzis Figuren auf Porzellantellern verewigten. So führt die Tradition der Trachtenillustration, die im 16. Jahrhundert begann, weit in das 18. Jahrhundert hinein und zeigt die beständige Wirkungskraft von Ligozzis ikonischen Werken. Unser anonymer Zeichner führt diese Tradition mit bemerkenswerter technischer Sicherheit und frischen, leuchtenden Farben fort. - Wir bitten darum, Zustandsberichte zu den Losen zu erfragen, da der Erhaltungszustand nur in Ausnahmefällen im Katalog angegeben ist. - Please ask for condition reports for individual lots, as the condition is usually not mentioned in the catalogue.
