Butler, Choiseul, I, Father and Son 1719-1754, 1980, ill.Country Life, 1987, vol. 181, p. 138The present work was formerly thought to be a portrait of Etienne-François de Choiseul-Beaupré-Stainville (1719-1785), however Greta Kaucher has now identified the sitter as Jean-Charles-Philibert Trudaine de Montigny (1733-1777), a renowned chemist. Here the sitter is depicted three-quarter length in elegant costume, and seated in a red satin gilded wooden fauteuil à la reine in his cabinet in Montigny-Lencoup. His cabinet is adorned with beautiful pieces clearly showing his interest for science, with the gilded claw compass held in his right hand and the important vacuum pump, after the design by L'Abbe Jean-Antoine Nollet, with a lacquered wooden base with gilded fillets and a glass bell, beside him.From a French-Italian family of military and theatrical fame, Michel Romagnesi was a pupil of Robert Le Vrac de Tournières (1667-1752) and had been a member of the Académie de Saint Luc in Paris since 1766 as Peintre Sculpteur but little else is known about his life.Very few works by Romagnesi are recorded but there is an altarpiece in the chapel of the hospital in Dax, representing the Apotheosis of Saint Vincent de Paul, and a Portrait of Claude-Alexandre de Villeneuve de Vence (1702-1760) given to Romagnesi or his Master Levrac Tournières, which was with Galerie Gismondi in 1990, listed in the Louvre documentation.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ** VAT on imported items at a reduced rate of 5.5% on the hammer price and the prevailing rate on buyer's premium if the item remains in EU.

Très rare miroir en faïence de Delft, vers 1680A very rare Dutch Delftware mirror, circa 1680In moulded high-relief with a grotesque mask at the top supported by putti arising from the wild baroque foliage, mirrored scrolling foliage on both sides, the top with a larger round hole and two smaller ones likely for fitting a metal candle bracket, 38.6 cm. x 31.4cm diam. (the mirror a later replacement)Footnotes:Provenance:The Ivan B. Hart Collection;Sold at Rob Michiels Auctions, Bruges, 28 March 2015, lot 103;Private European CollectionLiterature:Aronson, R. and Brouwers, E., Dutch Delftware, The Ivan B. Hart Collection, Aronson Antiquairs, Amsterdam, 2013, no. 3, p. 10This rare mirror is one of only four examples of Dutch Delft mirror frames currently recorded; the other three are in the collection of the Rijksmuseum (BK-NM-12400-95, BK-1959-55).Delftware pieces made for the interior were often based on metal examples, such as candlesticks and wall sconces. This mirror, too, appears to be based on a late 17th-century wooden or metal model, and at least partly influenced by the work of Daniel Marot (1661-1752), the great French-born Dutch Baroque architect, furniture designer and engraver.These kinds of precious objects were often associated directly with the Royal Court of William and Mary, for whom Marot designed the palace interiors at the Dutch Royal Palace of Het Loo from 1684. Exceptional designs and objects were found among the items excavated at Het Loo and listed among the 'Delft porcelain' in the inventories. A courtly poem on the Gelderland Castle of Rosendael by Johannes d'Outrein (1662-1722) suggests that it is highly likely that much of the Delftware was made or designed to Queen Mary's specifications. In the stanza on the queen's closet he refers to 'porcelain vases, which have been made to order for this place by the great queen Mary'. This closet was a small pavilion in the garden of Kasteel Rosendael that was dedicated to Mary and was probably a gift from the Queen to her courtier, Janne Margriete van Arnhem (1635-1721), shortly before Mary left for England. Unfortunately, it was dismantled and is known only from descriptions. The mirrors in Jan d'Outrein's poem were fitted in the wall: 'Het Midelst vercierd met d'heldre spiegelglasen, Waar in sig't kabinet ten tweedenmaal vertoont' (see A.M.L.E. Erkelens, Delffs Porcelijn' van koningin Mary II, 1996, pp.28-29).For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
