Charles van Loo, 1705 – 1765, zug.GemäldepaarMUSEALE GEMÄLDE EINER KÖNIGLICHEN HOCHZEITSKUTSCHE Öl auf Eichenholz.61,5 x 54 cm.Die beiden Bilder museal und höchst selten. Sie bildeten ursprünglich die Türbemalungen einer vergoldeten Prunkkutsche, wie sie in Paris für königliche Staatsprozessionen und Hochzeiten gefertigt wurden. In der Pariser Kutschen-Werkstatt arbeitete Van Loo zusammen mit seinen Mitarbeitern für die malerische Dekoration. Dabei sind die Hauptfiguren stets von der Hand des Meisters, die Nebendekoration von den Mitarbeitern. In der Regel enthalten die Darstellungen allegorische Bezüge zu Hochzeiten oder Krönungen. So sind auch hier die beiden bemalten Türverkleidungen mit Krönungsmotiven entsprechend allegorisch bemalt. Vor Blattgold-Hintergrund erscheinen jeweils fünf Putten auf Wolkenbänken. Sie stellen verniedlichte mythologische Götter und agieren entsprechend einem Hochzeitsereignis: In einem der Bilder vertritt ein Putto den Bräutigam als Gott Jupiter mit Blitzbündel und Helm. Er weist auf sein königliches ovales Wappen mit Krone. Links daneben Mars mit Schwert, darüber Flora, die die Krone hält. Links unten sitzt Amor im roten Umhang, Merkur mit einem Buch neben seinem Stab rechts auf der Wolke. Das Gegenstück ist der königlichen Braut gewidmet. Hier sind ebenfalls fünf Putten auf Wolken zu sehen. Eine mädchenhafte Puttenfigur mit rosafarbenem Velum oberhalb des noch unbekrönten Wappenrahmens erwartet die Krone. Im Zentrum unterhalb des Ovalwappens die weibliche Allegorie der Fortuna, mit einer ansehnlichen Mitgift in Form herabregnender Goldmünzen. Links darunter tragen zwei weitere Putten die Krone des Bräutigams nach oben, rechts daneben ist der Adler, Attribut des Zeus (des Bräutigams), flankiert von einem Putto mit Posaune (Ruhm). Die Innenflächen der ovalen Wappenrahmen sind mit Goldauflage überzogen. Es ist zu erkennen, dass sich darunter Adelswappen befinden. Der Grund liegt darin, dass derlei Prachtkarossen und Hochzeitskutschen mehrfach verwendet wurden, wobei jeweils neue Wappen eingesetzt werden konnten. Diese prächtigen Staatskutschen wurden in Paris gefertigt. In Deutschland war Frankfurt am Main traditionell die Wahl- und Krönungsstadt. Eine solche Prunkkarosse wurde laut Quellen für 100.000 rheinische Gulden erworben. So etwa die goldene Kutsche für die 1722 mit dem bayerischen Kurfürsten Karl Albrecht (1697-1745) vermählte, alsdann Kaiserin Maria Amalia (1701-1756) oder für den Kurfürsten Clemens August von Köln (1700-1761). Charles van Loo, in Paris für die Bemalung dieser Prunkkutschen zuständig, erhielt als „Peintre le plus habile“ 1.200 Louis d‘or, sowie „une tabatiére et montre“ in Gold als Gratifikation.Die Abbildung (Rudolf H. Wackernagel, München 2022, S. 66ff) zeigt die Prunkkarosse für Maria Amalia (Marstallmuseum, Schloss Nymphenburg), die ebenfalls mit Gemälden von Van Loo dekoriert ist. Die Malweise der hier vorliegenden Bilder stimmt mit den Malereien der Kutsche völlig überein. Charles van Loo entstammte einer flandrischen Malerfamilie. Er ging 1720 nach Paris, arbeitete zunächst mit seinem Bruder Jean-Baptiste zusammen und erhielt 1724 den Prix de Rome. 1732 in Turin, dann ab 1733 wieder in Paris, von Madame Pompadour als Rivale von Boucher gefördert. Noch vor seinem Tod wurde er als erster Maler des Königs in den Adel erhoben. Van Loo war Lehrer des Jean-Honoré Fragonard. A.R.Literatur: Vgl. Rudolf H.

An Italian 19th century porphyry, porfido verde and marble inset ebony and ebonised cabinet incorporating a total of forty-four stone tablets of various proportionsMost or possibly all of the tablets almost certainly of an earlier dateThe moulded top above eight short mahogany lined drawers flanking a central architectural facade, each drawer front comprised of two porphyry or porfido verde inset twin moulded panels, the central bay comprised of a short mahogany lined drawer disguised as a marble balustrade with marble tablet angles, over a central door configured as a blind arched portico inset with marble specimens and with Tuscan pilasters, with one panelled tablet inset mahogany lined drawer below, on a moulded plinth base, each side comprised of nine red porphyry inset moulded panels of various proportions, originally terminating in four bun feet, now lacking, with an old printed and pen-inscribed paper label which reads: 'PHILP & SON, 77 Kimberley Rd., Cardiff... Mr Throne, 71 Glebe Street, Penarth', approximately: 80cm wide x 37cm deep x 49cm high, (31in wide x 14 1/2in deep x 19in high)Footnotes:ProvenanceFormerly with A.T. Philp & Son, Cardiff, Wales, approximately 50 years ago, where presumably purchased by Mr Thorne, of 71 Glebe Street, Penarth, Wales, probably 1970sAlfred T. Philp & Son is the recorded trading name of this Cardiff antiques store during the period 1950-1970. A replica of an image showing the front of the shop in 1961, when it was evidently based at 36 Royal Arcade in Cardiff, is ready to inspect online, Photograph Antiques Yearbook, 1961, Tantivy Press. This picture is also available to view at antiquetrade.leeds.ac.uk However it is interesting to note that the printed and pen-inscribed paper label, discovered to the interior of this piece by the current owner and vendor, reveals that at the time of Mr Thorne's purchase the cabinet was with the company when it was trading as Philp & Son. Also, by that time, the label makes it clear that the Cardiff address of the business was in fact 77 Kimberley road, so it seems logical to assume that by then they had re-located their operation.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: TPTP For auctions held in Scotland: Lots will be moved to an offsite storage location (Constantine, Constantine House, North Caldeen Road, Coatbridge ML5 4EF, Scotland, UK) and will only be available for collection from this location at the date stated in the catalogue.
