A Bow botanical plate, circa 1757-59Of silver shape with a black line rim, painted in 'Hans Sloane' style with a branch of fruiting redcurrants, a curious moth and two smaller flying insects on the rim, 23.2cm diamFootnotes:ProvenanceBonhams, 14 November 2018, lot 341Robyn Robb CollectionPresumably based on the Chelsea prototypes, Bow's distinctive palate of enamel colours transforms the appearance of 'Hans Sloane' decoration. For a closely related Bow example see Anton Gabszewicz and Geoffrey Freeman, Bow Porcelain (1982), p.104, pl.158. A vase also with closely related leaves and an insect is in the Borough of Newham Collection, see Anton Gabszewicz, Made at New Canton (2000), fig.59.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

A very rare Chelsea fluted sugar bowl, circa 1752Of generous size and of fluted form, finely painted in Vincennes style with colourful European flowers with amongst a variety of insects including a green centipede, further insects and flowerheads to the interior below a brown line rim, 7.8cm highFootnotes:Although fluted teabowls of this form appear in Chelsea of the raised anchor and red anchor periods, this larger example, presumably a sugar bowl is incredibly rare. The delicate botanical sprays seen on Vincennes and quirky yet highly detailed insects are found on a number of raised anchor wares. For a pair of similarly decorated plinths marked with red raised anchors, see F Severne Mackenna, Chelsea Porcelain: The Triangle and Raised Anchor Wares (1948), pl.27, no.60.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Jacob Philipp Hackert 1737 Prenzlau - 1807 Florenz Alter Olivenbaum bei Camaldoli. 1801. Öl auf Leinwand. Verso auf der Leinwand signiert, datiert und ortsbezeichnet 'Filippo Hackert dipinse à Camaldoli in Toscana 1801'. 67 x 50 cm (26,3 x 19,6 in). Mit einem schriftlichen Gutachten von Frau Dr. Claudia Nordhoff, Rom, im Mai 2023. PROVENIENZ: Privatsammlung Berlin. In den 1790er Jahren beginnt Jacob Phillip Hackert mit Zeichnugen und Gemälden in der Umgebung des Klosters der Camaldulensermönche sowie höher in den Bergen gelegenen Einsiedelei San Eremo im weiteren Umland von Florenz. Hackert schreibt an Goethe, dass ihn in der dortigen Landschaft vor allem die Bäume interessieren. Eingebettet in die Landschaft oder wie in den Veduten häufig zu beobachten als eine Art Repoussoir zur Bestimmung der „Fernung“ wie Hackert es nennt, treten diese jedoch selten als bildfüllende Protagonisten auf. In den bewaldeten Hängen Camaldolis ist der Olivenbaum eher seltener anzutreffen, zu finden ist vielmehr eine variantenreiche Vegetation von Tannen, Lärchen, Kastanien, Buchen und Eichen. Diese botanische Sonderstellung sowie die emblematische Bedeutung des Olivenbaums für die Flora Italiens mag Hackert nicht zuletzt zu diesem Baumporträt angeregt haben. In nuancenreicher Feinarbeit modelliert er die knorrige, moosbewachsene Rinde des imposanten, uralten Baumes, das feine und dichte Laub, im Vordergrund gesellen sich erdig-graue Töne der flechtenbewachsenen Felsen hinzu. Die kleine Figur des Jägers mit Hund im Hintergrund, die dem Blick fast zu entgehen scheint, verdeutlicht die Größe des Olivenbaums. Neben der idealisierenden Komponente seiner Werke sind immer wieder solche von akribischer Beobachtung der Realität geprägten Gemälde ein Beweis für Hackerts intensive Reflexion malerischer Zielsetzungen und dem Hinterfragen von Gattungsnormen. [KT] Aufrufzeit: 10.06.2023 - ca. 17.31 h +/- 20 Min. Dieses Objekt wird regel- oder differenzbesteuert angeboten.ENGLISH VERSIONJacob Philipp Hackert 1737 Prenzlau - 1807 Florenz Alter Olivenbaum bei Camaldoli. 1801. Oil on canvas. Signed, dated and inscribed 'Filippo Hackert dipinse à Camaldoli in Toscana 1801' on the reverse. 67 x 50 cm (26.3 x 19.6 in). Accompanied by a written expertise issued by Dr. Claudia Nordhoff, Rome, from May 2023. PROVENANCE: Private collection Berlin. In the 1790s, Jacob Phillip Hackert began drawing and painting in the vicinity of the Camaldolese monastery and the San Eremo hermitage in the greater Florence area. Hackert wrote to Goethe that he was mainly interested in the trees embedded in the landscape. or, as it can be observed in his vedutas, as a kind of repoussoir for determining the “distance”, as Hackert calls it, while they rarely appear as protagonists. On the forest slopes of Camaldoli, olive trees are rarely found, but there is a much more varied vegetation of firs, larches, chestnuts, beeches and oaks. This special botanical position and the emblematic importance of the olive tree for the flora of Italy may have inspired Hackert to paint this tree portrait. In a fine and nuanced work method, he models the gnarled, moss-covered bark of the ancient tree, the fine and dense foliage, adding earthy-gray tones of the lichen-covered rocks in the foreground. The small figure of the hunter with his dog in the background, which almost seems to escape the eye, illustrates the size of the olive tree. In addition to the idealizing component of his works, such paintings, which are characterized by a meticulous observation of reality, are proof of Hackert's intensive reflection on painterly objectives and the questioning of genre norms.
