ISAAK DUCHEMIN, (FRENCH, FL. MID 19TH CENTURY) AND AFTER THE ANTIQUE, A PATINATED BRONZE MODEL OF THE FAUN WITH CLAPPERS, the figure portrayed in dance, a cymbal held in each hand, his right foot atop a scabellum, the oval base inscribed DUCHEMIN in the maquette, 58cm high NOTE: The marble original of the Faun with Clappers resides in the Uffizi Galleries, Florence, and indeed was first recorded in that city by Albert Rubens (son of the Dutch master) in 1665, having seen the piece in the collection of the Grand Duke of Tuscany. It had been moved to the Tribuna of the Uffizi by 1688. The model was always a popular one, being light hearted and playful, and was therefore much reproduced from the Renaissance onwards. A full-scale bronze version was made by Soldani for Prince Liechtenstein in 1695 and again for the Duke of Marlborough at Blenheim Palace, and small versions were produced by Zoffoli and Righetti, -and indeed by many others ever since
