COMMODE D'ÉPOQUE LOUIS XV EN MARQUETERIE GÉOMETRIQUE DE BOIS DE ROSE, SATINÉ ET AMARANTE, ORNEMENTATION DE BRONZE CISELÉ ET DORÉ, ESTAMPILLE DE JACQUES DUBOISVers 1755A LOUIS XV ORMOLU-MOUNTED TULIPWOOD, BOIS SATINE, AMARANTH AND PARQUETRY COMMODE, JACQUES DUBOISCirca 1755Overall veneered with contrasting lozenge motifs, the shaped and moulded brèche d'Alep marble top, with two small drawers variously shaped above one long drawer, each with shaped reserves for foliate handles and cartouche shaped escutcheons, flanked by extensive pierced foliate chutes, the sides centred by a large stylized shell foliate mount, above splayed legs terminating in lion-headed foliate scrolling sabots, stamped 'I.DUBOIS' and 'JME'. 84cm (33in) high x 123cm (48 1/2in) wide x 58cm (22 3/4in) deep.Footnotes:Jacques Dubois, maître ébéniste in 1742.Jacques Dubois was born in 1694 from Marguerite Montigny and Louis Dubois. His half-brother, Noël Gérard, born before 1690 is the son of Marguerite Montigny' previous union with Nicolas Gérard. Noël Gérard quickly became one of the most important cabinetmakers and marchand-mercier in Paris, based in the Hôtel Jabach, rue neuve Saint-Merry. It was exactly in the workshop of his half-brother Noël Gérard that Jacques Dubois began his career in the 1720's, and logically became quite influenced by Gérard. Interestingly, Dubois did not receive his master's degree until much later in 1742, at the age of 48. After the disappearance of Noël Gérard in 1736, Jacques Dubois had to rely on other marchands-mercier to sell his furniture until he obtained his 'maîtrise'. In the 1740's Jacques Dubois is known to have excelled in his production of floral marquetry, inspired by the work of Bernard I Van Risenburgh and by that of Jean-Pierre Latz. In addition, Jacques Dubois often incorporated Chinese and Japanese lacquer into his repertoire, but always paid particular attention to the ormolu mounts which he retained an essential element. Our commode marks an evolution in Jacques Dubois's oeuvre, both its shape and the parquetry (marqueterie à cubes) are in harmony with the Transitional style and evoke the beginning of the goût Grec which will have a huge impact in the years to come. It is interesting to note that on the death of Jean-François Oeben in 1763, Jacques Dubois was commissioned by the heirs of Oeben as an expert to value the remaining content of Oeben's workshop. We find the same type of cube parquetry on certain pieces of furniture by Jean-François Oeben, with whom he probably collaborated. While this shaped parquetry commode is quite atypical in the oeuvre of Jacques Dubois, we can observe the interesting contrast between the finely presented ormolu mounts backed with by similarly shaped contrasting veneered cartouches, and the amusing arrangement of the drawers, where the top drawer is divided in one third-two third sections while the lower one is a single drawer, creating surprise. Assez atypique dans l'œuvre de Jacques Dubois, cette commode de forme galbée tient son intérêt dans l'harmonieuse présentation de son ornementation de bronzes ciselés et dorés placés sur des cartouches de forme identique contrastant le fond à motif géométrique, ceci est particulièrement visible sur les poignées feuillagées, les entrées de serrure et les riches bronzes feuillagés centrés de coquilles stylisées placés sur les côtés qui sont ainsi mis en valeur. De plus, l'arrangement des tiroirs est surprenant, en partie supérieure on trouve deux tiroirs divisés en un tiers et deux tiers, alors que celui inférieur est un long tiroir, l'avantage esthétique étant de ne pas briser la ligne, de jouer avec le ressaut présent et surtout de créer la surprise. Jacques Dubois naquit en 1694 de l'union entre Marguerite Montigny et Louis Dubois. Son demi-frère, Noël Gérard, né avant 1690 est le fils de la précédente union de Marguerite Montigny avec Nicolas Gérard. Noël Gérard deviendra rapidement un des ébénistes et marchand-merciers les plus importants de Paris, installé dans l'hôtel Jabach, rue neuve Saint-Merry. C'est dans l'atelier de son demi-frère Noël Gérard que Jacques Dubois a commencé sa carrière dans les années 1720, et il a été passablement influencé par Gérard. Dubois n'a reçu sa maîtrise que bien plus tard en 1742, à l'âge de 48 ans. Après la disparition de Noël Gérard en 1736, Jacques Dubois a dû s'appuyer sur d'autres marchands afin de commercialiser ses meubles jusqu'à l'obtention de sa maîtrise. Jacques Dubois est connu pour avoir entamé sa production de marqueterie à motif feuillagé en bois-de-boût dans les années 1740, en s'inspirant de l'œuvre de Bernard I Van Risenburgh ainsi que de Jean-Pierre Latz. Outre la marqueterie, Jacques Dubois a souvent incorporé la laque de Chine et du Japon dans son répertoire. Il a toujours attaché une attention particulière à l'ornementation en bronze doré, et à la présentation de celle-ci, souvent mise en valeur, comme dans ce cas. La commode ici présentée signe une évolution dans l'œuvre de l'ébéniste, sa forme ainsi que la marqueterie géométrique sont en harmonie avec le style Transition et évoquent déjà le début du goût Grec qui fera rapidement son apparition. Il est intéressant de noter qu'a la mort de Jean-François Oeben en 1763, Jacques Dubois a été mandaté par les héritiers de Oeben en tant qu'expert pour la succession. On retrouve le même type de marqueterie à cubes sur certains meubles de Jean-François Oeben, avec qui il a probablement collaboré. Jacques Dubois est mort la même année, en 1763. 約1755年 Jacques Dubois製路易十五時期鎏金銅飾鬱金香木、緞木及紫芯木幾何細木镶嵌抽屜櫃For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
COMMODE D'ÉPOQUE TRANSITION EN BOIS DE ROSE ET FILETS D'AMARANTE, ORNEMENTATION DE BRONZE CISELÉ ET DORÉ, ESTAMPILLE DE CLAUDE-CHARLES SAUNIER, MARQUE AU FEU DU DUC DE PENTHIÈVRE À CHATEAUNEUF-SUR-LOIREVers 1770A LATE LOUIS XV ORMOLU-MOUNTED TULIPWOOD AND AMARANTH-BANDED COMMODE, CLAUDE-CHARLES SAUNIER, BRAND OF DUC DE PENTHIEVRE AT CHATEAUNEUF-SUR-LOIRECirca 1770 The rectangular moulded brèche d'Alep marble top above three drawers sans traverse framed by a contrasting veneered encadrement and rosettes and an ormolu border, with escutcheons and ring handles, the sides conformingly veneered, above slight cabriole legs terminating in upswept acanthus foliate sabots, stamped 'CC SAUNIER' and 'JME', with Châteauneuf-sur-Loire château brand 'C9' centred by an anchor. 89cm (35in) high x 131cm (51 1/2in) wide x 56cm (22in) deep.Footnotes:Provenance:Louis-Jean-Marie de Bourbon, duc de Penthièvre, Grand Amiral de France (1725-1793), at Châteauneuf-sur-LoireSotheby Parke Bernet & Co., Monte-Carlo, 15 June 1981, lot 126Published:P.Kjellberg, Le Mobilier Français du XVIIIème siècle, Paris, 1998, pp.772-773, pl.AA.Pradère, Les ébénistes de Louis XIV à la Révolution, Paris, 1989, p.369, pl.443Claude-Charles Saunier, maître ébéniste in 1752.Claude-Charles Saunier (1735-1807), brought up by a family of cabinetmakers established rue du Faubourg Saint-Antoine, obtained his master's degree (Maîtrise) at a very young age, in 1752. It is in 1765 that he took over the family workshop producing mainly luxurious and tasteful furniture predominantly in the Neoclassical style. This chest of drawers belongs to a group of furniture that Saunier was particularly fond of. He executed this very type of commode in different variations. The sober decoration, absence of breakfront and discreet-looking facade is enriched by a double framing, here as an amaranth filet delicately contrasting the horizontal veined tulipwood, and an outer ormolu frame 'encadrement' highlighting the drawers sans traverse. A practically identical commode of smaller size was sold anonymously Christie's Paris, 500 Ans: Arts Décoratifs Européens, 5 May 2011, lot 321. Another one was sold at Hôtel des ventes Piguet in Geneva on 13 June 2012, lot 1001. A related chest of drawers was sold at Cheverny in June 1990; while another closely related example was offered for sale at Christie's New York in October 1991.The Duc de Penthièvre, Grandson of Louis XIV and son of Louis-Alexandre de Bourbon, Louis-Jean-Marie de Bourbon (1725-1793) also had the title of Grand Amiral de France, a title he retains from the early age of twelve. Owner of Château de Rambouillet, which he had to give up in favour of Louis XVI in 1783, the Duke de Penthièvre, one of the richest men in Europe as a result of inheriting land from his uncle the Duke of Maine, owned the Hôtel de Toulouse (now the Banque de France) and through inheritance became the owner of various important châteaux as Sceaux, Aumale, Dreux, Gisors and of Anet. Over the years, the Duke of Penthièvre also acquired a few other prestigious properties, as Chanteloup and the Château at Châteauneuf-sur-Loire in 1784 from the Rohan-Guéméné family, with all its content. Following the Duke's death in 1793, the contents of the Château were seized during the Revolution and later sold in Paris. The brand used by the Duke of Penthièvre is that of the anchor, which refers to his title of Grand Amiral de France, with the addition of the letters specific to each castle, in this case in a very modern and original innovative spirit: 'C9' for Châteauneuf-sur Loire. Claude-Charles Saunier (1735-1807), issu d'une famille d'ébénistes établis rue du Faubourg Saint-Antoine, obtint sa maîtrise très jeune, en 1752. Il reprit en 1765 l'atelier familial produisant essentiellement de luxueux meubles de goût Néoclassique. Cette commode fait partie des meubles qu'affectionna particulièrement Claude-Charles Saunier. Il réalisa ce type même de commode avec différentes variantes. Les lignes précises, le décor sobre, la façade d'apparence discrète est enrichie d'un double encadrement discret, premièrement en filet d'amarante contrastant délicatement le bois de rose, et finalement en bronze doré soulignant les tiroirs sans traverses sans ressaut. Petit-fils de Louis XIV et fils de Louis-Alexandre de Bourbon, Louis-Jean-Marie de Bourbon (1725-1793), duc de Penthièvre et Grand Amiral de France, propriétaire du château de Rambouillet qu'il dût céder à Louis XVI, était également propriétaire de l'hôtel de Toulouse à Paris (aujourd'hui la Banque de France). Louis-Jean-Marie de Bourbon devient un des hommes les plus riches d'Europe par suite de l'héritage du patrimoine foncier de son oncle, le duc de Maine. Il sera propriétaire des différents châteaux hérités: Sceaux, Aumale, Dreux, Gisors et bien entendu Anet. De plus, dans le courant de sa vie, il fera également l'acquisition d'autres nobles propriétés, comme Chanteloup ainsi que le château à Châteauneuf-sur-Loire. La marque de château à l'ancre se réfère au titre de Grand Amiral de France, titre que Louis-Jean-Marie de Bourbon a depuis l'âge de douze ans. On ajoute à la représentation de l'ancre les lettres spécifiques à chaque château, soit dans ce cas et dans un esprit moderne : 'C9' pour Châteauneuf-sur-Loire. Châteauneuf-sur-Loire a été construit par Mansart à la fin du XVIIème siècle. Il a été racheté par le duc de Penthièvre en 1784 auprès de la famille Rohan-Guéméné, avec tout son contenu, pour la somme de 50.000 livres. Le duc est mort en 1793, et le contenu du château est saisi sous la Révolution et dispersé à Paris en vente. Une commode de forme pratiquement identique mais plus petite a été vendue chez Christie's à Paris, le 5 mai 2011, lot 321, et une autre, à l'Hôtel des ventes Piguet à Genève, le 13 juin 2012, lot 1001.

Beneman who until then had been working freely in the Faubourg Saint-Antoine, was quickly received as a master cabinetmaker in 1785. Exempted from the rights and conditions of access to the profession, he was mainly chosen for his talent and for the similarity of his production to Riesener's one. Beneman was initially responsible for restoring, modifying, updating and copying existing important pieces of furniture from the royal collection, under the supervision of the talented and influent wood sculptor Jean Hauré. In just a few years (1786-1792) and with the help of fifteen to twenty craftsmen at his command, he delivered no less than 235 pieces of furniture for a total of 59.555 livres. At the same time, Beneman kept up to date and was inspired by the latest trends propagated by the important marchand-mercier Dominique Daguerre, whose ideas were often executed by the not less talented cabinetmaker Adam Weisweiler. C'est en 1785 que Guillaume Beneman (vers 1750-1811), d'origine allemande, alors quasiment inconnu, est choisi après avoir participé à l'appel d'offre lancé par le Garde-Meuble de la Couronne, comme principal fournisseur du Garde-Meuble royal en remplacement de Jean-Henri Riesener devenu trop cher, suite à la décision de réduire les coûts. Beneman exerçant jusque-là librement au Faubourg Saint Antoine, est donc rapidement reçu maître-ébéniste en 1785. Dispensé de droits et conditions d'accès à la profession, il est principalement choisi pour sa maîtrise de son travail et pour la précision de son exécution proche de Riesener. Il devient donc le dernier ébéniste fournisseur du Garde-Meuble de la Couronne. Il est d'abord chargé de restaurer, modifier, mettre à jour et copier certains meubles importants de la collection royale, sous la supervision du talentueux sculpteur sur bois Jean Hauré. En quelques années (1786-1792) et avec l'aide d'une quinzaine de collaborateurs à ses ordres, il livre non moins de 235 meubles pour un total de 59.555 livres! Parallèlement, Beneman suit et s'inspire des dernières tendances propagées par l'influent marchand-mercier Dominique Daguerre, créations souvent exécutées par Adam Weisweiler. Ce type de grande commode à ressaut aurait été développé initialement par Adam Weisweiler vers les années 1745, soit en acajou ou en laque du Japon. Mais c'est vers la fin du règne de Louis XVI que ce type de commode est à son apogée. La sobriété des lignes et la pureté du dessin sont caractéristiques de la meilleure production de la fin du XVIIIème siècle. 約1790年 Guillaume Beneman製路易十六風格桃花芯木鑲鎏金銅飾大邊櫃來源:或為費爾法克斯·卡特賴特爵士G.C.M.G.,G.C.V.O.舊藏,倫敦佳士得,1968年6月27日,編號84蒙特卡洛佳士得,1985年12月7日,編號120相關出版:A.Pradère,《Les Ebénistes de Louis XIV à la Révolution》,巴黎,1989年,頁405-4111785年,為了減少開支,法國皇家傢俱貯藏庫(Garde-Meuble de la Couronne)公開招標時,選擇了當年默默無聞的德國籍細木傢俱製造商Guillaume Beneman(1750-1811 年)作為皇家傢俱保管府(Garde-Meuble Royal)的首要供應商。 Guillaume Beneman由此取代了當時價格過高的供應商Jean-Henri Riesener。 Beneman此前一直是巴黎聖安托萬市郊路的自由傢俱製造商。 這一年,他也很快獲得「高級細木傢俱製造大師」的殊榮。 被免除了例行的行業費用和規定,Beneman入選首要供應商的成功因素是他無可挑剔之專業水準和與Riesener不相上下的精雕細琢之工藝。 他也因此成為法國皇家傢俱貯藏庫的最後一位傢俱供應商。 在異稟天賦的木製雕刻家Jean Hauré的督察下,他最初負責法國皇家傢俱貯藏庫里一些重要傢俱的修復、改造、更新和複製。 之後短短幾年裡,他和他十幾位工匠師製作了不下235件總值達59 555法國里弗爾的傢俱。 同時,Beneman跟隨引領潮流的「奢侈品轉銷商」Dominique Daguerre宣導的最新時尚...
