A LARGE ITALIAN CARVED, GILT POKERWORK AND PAINTED CASSONEThe front panel painted with the Abduction of Helen of Troy, by a follower of Apollonnio di Giovanni82cm high, 193cm wide, 72cm deepCassoni (rectangular lidded chests) were part of the marriage trousseau, or alternatively formed part of the personal possessions of wealthy women when entering into a convent. They usually came in pairs, and were kept in the bedroom, as can be seen in the 15th century inventories of the Medici palaces (C. Rowell, 'Florentine cassoni at Blickling, Knole and Cliveden', Furniture History, 2015, p. 21). This is a typical mid-15th century Florentine example (with later additions and restoration) with its imbricated lid, single oblong panel on the front and two smaller panels to the sides. The subjects of the cassone paintings and the carved and gilded woodwork were all' antica, typical of the Renaissance revival (ibid.), this particular example most likely depicting the Abduction of Helen of Troy, while both side panels are decorated with elaborate coats of arms. One of the largest collections of cassoni is at the Victoria and Albert Museum, London. The Florentine examples at the V&A, for example, W.68-1925, have more ornate carving than the one offered here, and carved lion paw and acanthus feet. However, during the 19th century, many cassoni were broken up to create grander versions of the original with additional decorative carving, see cassoni at Blickling Hall, Knole and Cliveden (NT 354249, 129489 and 765873).Provenance: This item was inherited from the 7th Viscount Gort, deemed to be of national importance and placed into conditional exemption upon his death. Condition Report: Marks, knocks, scratches, abrasions consistent with age and use. Signs of old wood worm. Late 18th century carcass, the giltwood elements are 19th century in date. The lock missing, the hinges are later, the rear boards with large areas of wax filler which is yellow in colour and quite obvious. The gilded surfaces with various wear and rubbing as well as refreshment in places. Left side panel has been extensively over painted. A horizontal crack running across the width of the panel with related retouches. Some craquelure but paint layers appears stable. A few scratches and abrasion. Right side panel has been extensively over painted. There are three horizontal cracks running across the width of the panel with related flaking paint and retouching. Some craquelure particularly in the red roundel on the right. Some scratches and abrasion. Both sides have surface dirt. The front panel has some surface dirt and extensive over painting. There is a horizontal crack running across the width of the panel as well as two bent cracks in the upper right corner, another horizontal crack in the bow of the ship. Signs of scratches and abrasion. Craquelure across the surface of the panel, but paint layers appear stable. Condition Report Disclaimer
Lot 234
A small George II mahogany bachelor's chest with tooled pigskin lined fold-over top above lopers and two short over three long drawers, on shaped bracket feet. 80 cm wide x 34 cm deep x 75 cm overall height.From a private deceased estate in LondonThe top shows a crack in the veneer due to being veneered on a composite ground (cleated two plank construction) the crack is fine and not a gaping gapThe top has a slight bow due to the same reason mentioned above and shows some minor veneer crack to the edges of the top.The chest has a good rich patina throughoutThe handles seem to be original but be aware one post and its corresponding nuts is missing from the bottom drawer but we have the swan neck that is loose.Some of the posts have had replacement nuts as everThe top right-hand short drawer is missing its side cock beading to either sideThe drawer runners have been repaired but a long time ago to keep the chest in service but are honest repairsThe bottom long drawer has the right-hand drawer stop missing this has caused the drawer to be pushed in too far thus spitting the drawer parallel to the bottom edge.I am not sure the pigskin lining of the top is original but it has age and could well be.
