A plaster of Paris model of Maison Carrée, c.1820s, French, attributed to Jean-Pierre and François Fouquet, raised on a mahogany stand with Perspex cover,model 10.08cm wide 23.7cm deep 12.5cm highProvenance: The Collection of Ben Weinreb (1912-1999), thence by descent to the present owner.To find out more about the provenance of this lot, please click here.Built in the 1st century AD in the forum of the Roman colony of Nemausus (modern-day Nîmes), the Maison Carrée is one of the earliest examples of a Roman temple which can be connected to imperial worship in the Roman provinces. It is a pseudoperipteral temple built in the Corinthian order and – according to the description given by the architectural writer Vitruvius - represents a nearly textbook example of a Roman templeA careful reconstruction of a dedicatory inscription on the temple in 1758 led scholars to believe it was built in dedication to Augustus’s two grandsons and intended heirs - Gaius and Lucius Caesar – who, prematurely deceased, were accorded the title Princes of Youth (principes juventutis). It is regarded as one of the best-preserved examples of a Roman temple dedicated to the imperial cult in the provinces of Rome and, as a result, is a testament to the period of Rome’s transition from republic to empire.A set of models by Fouquet can also be found in the collection of Sir John Soane's Museum. According to the records held by the Museum, Sir John Soane purchased twenty models by François Fouquet in 1834 from the architect Edward Cresy (1792-1858) who, from 1829-1835, worked in Paris. Soane paid Cresy the substantial sum of £100. It is likely that Cresy purchased the models directly from Fouquet et Fils.Condition ReportSome small chips and knocks, with a evidence of a few areas of repair. Right-hand lion appears replaced.

A plaster of Paris model of Ilisos Temple, c.1820s, French, attributed to Jean-Pierre and François Fouquet, raised on a mahogany stand with Perspex cover,model 12.5cm wide 23.5cm deep 12.3cm highProvenance: The Collection of Ben Weinreb (1912-1999), thence by descent to the present owner.To find out more about the provenance of this lot, please click here.The small Ionic temple on which the present lot was modelled was built on the south bank of the Ilisos (or Ilissus) River in Athens and is also referred to as the Temple of Artemis Agrotera, or Artemis the Huntress. Not much of the temple survives today, due to it being demolished in 1778, but it appears to date to the 5th century BC and is possibly the work of the Greek architect, Kallicrates, who worked on the Parthenon.Another, slightly larger, version of this model can be found in the collection of Sir John Soane's Museum (MR2*). It is understood that Soane visited Paestum as a student in 1779, and the Doric order in particular had a profound effect on his architecture, as can be seen in the Doric Vestibule of the Bank of England (1803-08). According to the records held by the Museum, Sir John Soane purchased twenty models by Francois Fouquet in 1834 from the architect Edward Cresy (1792-1858) who, from 1829-1835, worked in Paris. Soane paid Cresy the substantial sum of £100. It is likely that Cresy purchased the models directly from Fouquet et Fils.According to the Sir John Soane’s Museum, François based his model on plates I-VIII, chapter II of James Stuart and Nicholas Revett’s 'The Antiquities of Athens', first published in 1762, with a French translation published in 1793.Condition ReportSome small chips, knocks, cracks and losses throughout.
