An Art Deco silver and pink enamel dressing table set, cased, Birmingham 1936, W.G. Sothers Ltd., (no comb)

Imposing carved, polychromed and gilded cupboard. Viceroyalty work. Peru. Late 17th century.227 x 119 x 77 cm. Structurally, it has four doors at the front that are divided by two drawers at the middle. The decoration of the doors comprises large vases with sunflowers and foliage in each four of the panels. The sides are embellished with flat carving and a moulded cornice.The interior walls and dome-like ceiling are painted red with gold leaf decoration of geometric motifs. The upper and lower bodies have carved and polychromed shelves in red, which are supported by corbels also carved and polychromed. The inner wall of the four doors is decorated with paintings representing country life and hunting, and two curious scenes depicting anthropomorphic animals, one of them resembles a trial and a hanging.An example comparable to ours is the one kept in the Lima Art Museum, and is, as María Campos Carlés indicates in “Un legado que pervive en Hispanoamérica. El mobiliario del Virreinato del Perú de los siglos XVII y XVIII”: (A legacy that survives in Latin America. The furniture of the Viceroyalty of Peru in the 17th and 18th centuries): “A dazzling and majestic wardrobe for secular use. This piece was built in the last quarter of the 17th century by anonymous artisans from Cusco with Italian influence. One of the outstanding features of this large-format container is its classic morphology. It has four doors, two drawers in the middle and is supported by four legs decorated with a phytomorphic design. Its roof has the architectural profile of a hipped roof, following the local tradition, and is concealed by an imposing frontal and lateral crown in the form of a comb (which this one does not have) that rests on an imposing carved cornice. Inside the upper body, there is a pair of shallow shelves, contained by a turned wood balustrade and a third one with a hexagonal shape under a ceiling adorned with floral motifs.”In this example, the inside of the doors is decorated with the same type of flat carving as the outside, and it is interesting to note that our wardrobe, however, has wonderful painted decoration of scenes with period characters in a gallant attitude, scenes of daily life etc. We find this type of interior ornamentation, for example, in the cabinet that is preserved in the collection at the Pedro de Osma Museum in Lima, although in varied colours. This one is based on sepia or sanguine tones.Another example comparable to our wardrobe is the one that is part of the Vivian and Jaime Liébana collection in Lima, dating from the 18th century. Regarding this example, Carlés highlights: “Anonymous hands designed this large cabinet with ornamental exuberance, unprecedented expressiveness and harmonic distribution of compositional weight. With remarkable aesthetic sense, they focused on pouring the decorative elements over the entire piece with rigorous symmetry."Regarding the origin and style of this type of baroque furniture, we highly recommended reading chapter VI of the aforementioned book by Carlés, "Mobiliario de estilo barroco madera con talla plana, desnuda, dorada y policromada. Uso civil y religioso utilitario y ornamental. Lima, Cusco, Arequipa, Puno y Trujillo” (Baroque-style wood furniture with flat, bare, gilded and polychrome carvings. Civil and religious utilitarian and ornamental use. Lima, Cusco, Arequipa, Puno and Trujillo), in which she explains how: “the local craftsman extracted artistic patterns from books of engravings and drawings of European art. These valuable data allowed them to decorate furniture with a Europeanizing morphology, yet inserting juxtaposed autochthonous elements. The Spanish baroque underwent changes in the Viceroyalty of Peru as a result of the added ornamental fantasy that was typical of the Andean identity, which is eager for creativity….The three-dimensional volumetry was achieved by roughing in bevel on hard and soft woods…It is relevant that on some occasions furniture the carved wood was gilded totally or partially with gold leaf, as well as being covered with patinas and polychrome, as in this way the piece was given an unprecedented expressiveness."Bibliographic reference:- María Campos Carlés.
