A pair of neoclassical mahogany and ormolu pier tables, late 20th/early 21st century, but incorporating earlier elements, each of demilune outline, the stepped top above a frieze, mounted with twenty-three grand tour cameos of emperors, kings and historic figures,138cm wide63cm deep82cm high (2)This pair of tables is believed to have been made by the restorer Dennis Buggins for antiques dealer John Hobbs, for whom Buggins, between 1992 and 2007, adapted or outright fabricated nearly a thousand pieces, using traditional techniques and period elements to pass them off as genuine articles of fine antique furniture. The legacy of this relationship was brought to light in scandalous detail in 2008, when after disagreements and successive lawsuits between the two, Buggins not only revealed the estimated number of forgeries that he had executed for Hobbs, but the extent to which his works - some imitating the likes of Thomas Chippendale, Giles Grendey and the Russian cabinetmaker Christopher Meyer - were accepted by the market. Later that year, Sotheby's withdrew a pair of commodes catalogued as 'German c.1800', which carried a top estimate of $300,000, after Buggins' tip that they had been constructed from old wardrobes.

After Jacques-Louis Gautier, 'Mephistopheles', cold-painted bronze, late 19th/early 20th century, inscribed 'J. Gautier' to the base,18cm wide23cm deep87cm high In the late 19th century, a fascination with the macabre emerged, culminating in the 1890s with the symbolist themes seen in the Art Nouveau movement. However, even before this, artists such as Jacques-Louis Gautier were producing works that reflected a growing interest in the peculiar. Gautier, a student of François Rude, made his Salon debut in 1850 with a piece titled 'Misery'. While some artists drew inspiration from exotic cultures or the natural world, Gautier focused on creating characters and allegorical figures from mythology and literature. One such figure, Mephistopheles, was first sculpted in the early 1850s and met with immediate acclaim. It was showcased at the 1855 Exposition Universelle in Paris. By this time, Mephistopheles was a well-known figure - originating as a demon in German folklore and featuring prominently in the Faust legend, he had become a stock representation of the devil.For a similar example, see High Museum of Art, Atlanta, accession number 1999.36.Condition ReportOverall the sculpture is in very good condition.
