Possibly from the workshop of Louis-François Roubiliac (1702 ~ 1762), a patinated bronze bust of a child, second half 18th century, the smiling face turned to sinister beneath a full head of tousled hair; atop a circular section waisted socle, 31.5cm high CATALOGUE NOTES: Roubiliac was born in Lyon, later apparently moving to Dresden to train in the studio of Balthasar Permoser, himself a product of Bernini's workshop. Permoser was working for the Protestant Elector of Saxony, and later in Paris in the studio of his fellow-townsman Nicolas Coustou. Disappointed in receiving second place in the competition for the Prix de Rome in 1730, he received his medal but not the chance to study in Rome moving instead to London A 1938 article published by Bellamy Gardner first suggested that the Chelsea Factory porcelain bust of the Laughing Child, now in the Ashmolean Museum was modelled by Roubiliac, and scholars have questioned whether the attribution is tenable ever since. While Esdaile accepted it, both Penny and Baker refrained from linking it to him securely - but kept him as a prominent candidate based on circumstantial evidence. Whoever the author - and even Flaxman's name has been raised - the head is clearly based on 17th century Baroque prototypes and in particular Bernini (whom Roubiliac greatly admired) and Duquesnoy. In 2012 another, previously unrecorded Chelsea porcelain bust appeared at auction, being acquired by Bath's Holburne Museum Unusual for its small scale in the context of English 18th century bronze work, the model is sometimes found paired with the bust of a crying child. If intended as pendants, together they may reveal their original identification as the young Heraclitus and Democritus, the cheerful (i.e. laughing) and gloomy (i.e. crying) Greek philosphers A marble version of the Laughing Child by Joseph Nollekens is held at the State Hermitage Museum in St Petersburg Cf.
