Organisers’ Welcome We are delighted to welcome you to the 24th International Fine Art & Antique Dealers Show.

Considered the top international fair in America, The International Fine Art & Antique Dealers Show attracts a superlative roster of exhibitors, drawn from among the most prestigious and knowledgeable art and antique dealers in the United States and Europe. The Fair takes place each year in October at the start of the Fall art, antiques and social season in New York City and offers a second-to-none selection of works of art.

Visitors to The International Fine Art & Antique Dealers Show can view and buy from among the most important and rarest works of art currently available. The range on offer at the Fair is enormously diverse, spanning continents and millennia, cultures, materials, periods and styles and from antiquities to contemporary.

Over the last 24 years, The International Fine Art & Antique Dealers Show has evolved into more than just a marketplace for high-end art and antiques. We are delighted that it provides a valuable international meeting ground for a global community of collectors, curators, dealers and interior designers. For the public and the trade, it has come to serve as an essential forum — an exciting blend of culture and commerce through which we hope to enthuse future generations of collectors and art lovers.

Every object exhibited at the Fair is rigorously examined and vetted for quality and authenticity, by our honorary vetting committee so collectors can be assured they can buy with absolute confidence. The honorary vetting committees are made up of advisers, museum curators and dealers. We are extremely grateful to the committee members for giving so freely of their knowledge, expertise and time and in particular our Honorary Vetting Committee Chairman, Edward Munves.

Finally, we look forward to seeing you here again next October to celebrate the 2013 International Fine Art and

Antique Dealers Show, which will take place 25–31 October 2013.

The Vetting of a Fine Art and Antiques Fair What it is and why?

It has long been standard practice at all major international fine art and antique fairs, for all exhibits to be examined before the opening of the fair by panels of advisers, to ensure that they are accurately described and of a quality to justify their exhibition at a prestige event.

There are separate Honorary Vetting Committees for each category, such as furniture, clocks, silver, paintings, sculpture etc., and their membership is drawn from leading authorities in the field and includes many museum curators.

There are two main reasons for vetting.

Firstly, to reassure the public that everything submitted to the Honorary Vetting Committees conforms to the regulations laid down and that, as far as possible, all items are authentic and of the period stated. As potential purchasers may not have sufficient expertise themselves in a particular subject or category, this assurance of authenticity will, we hope, give them the confidence to buy.

Secondly, vetting guarantees to all the exhibitors and to the public that standards are being maintained at a high level. It is crucial to the commercial and academic success of such an event that its reputation for only having the best in all categories is never compromised. The integrity of the fair and the reputation of the exhibitors is therefore ensured.

Our thanks to all the members of the Honorary Vetting Committees for their help and co-operation.

T

he splendid collection of Far Eastern porcelains exhibited today in the Munich Residenz Palace and which also include several

pieces now in the possession of the Bavarian National Museum (Munich) is, in essence, a product of the purchases made by the Bavarian Elector Max Emanuel (1662–1726) and his son and successor Charles Albert (1697–1745) (fig. 1).1 Elector Max Emanuel had a particular and personal interest in Far Eastern porcelain and mounted items known as objets d’art. Considering Max Emanuel’s initiative and impact on the collecting of porcelains, this article will focus on the late periods of Louis XIV and the Régence. Although Elector Charles Albert’s artistic interests were less profound, he continued to commission

assembling their finished products. By setting the Far Eastern artefacts in mounts of European style the prevailing taste of the Louis XIV and Louis XV periods sought to harmonize their ‘foreign’ character with the fashionable decor of the up-to-date Régence and Rococo interiors.

Due to this artificial creative impulse to deal with the exotic, the merciers gained access to a major lucrative market which they stimulated again and again by introducing ever new styles.

Danet

(c. 1650–1720), who was one of the very influential marchands merciers during the reign of the Sun King. Danet had been a specialist in jewellery and Old Master paintings since the 1670s. He built up a wide-ranging network of business contacts abroad, which allowed him to bring together objects of the highest quality for whose further refinement only the best artisans were chosen.

Amongst his high-ranking clients were Louis XIV, the Princess Conti and most importantly the Grand Dauphin Louis (1661–1711), heir to the French throne. At the very latest in 1686, when the Siamese embassy created a veritable fascination for all that was Asian, Danet too began widening his stock to include East Asian works of art. Meeting the clientele’s desire for prestige and exotic refinement was surely a prerequisite. However, French imports were hindered by the chronic financial difficulties of

There is much to the idea that these Dresden creations have their origins in what had been conceived at the court of Versailles. Coming back to Max Emanuel’s cabaret of 1694–95, in his function as a mercer, Laurent Danet is likely to have been the general contractor for the commission and therefore also responsible for the design and the production of the ensemble which was then accentuated by the galanteries specifically chosen by Monseigneur. In accordance with its function, the cabaret displayed some ‘porcelaines

1715. At any event, the extraordinary gift of state sent in 1695 by the Grand Dauphin, who himself was both an avid collector of Chinese porcelain and had a distinct taste for mounted objects, should be considered the beginning for Bavarian collections of this kind.

Yet before being able to engage in his own and more extensive business relations with the Parisian dealer, the Bavarian Elector was forced to wait until 1697, when peace with France was granted by the Treaty of Rijswijk. A brief peaceful and prosperous period ensued which allowed Max Emanuel to personally supervise the reconstruction of the war-affected city of his residence, Brussels.

important pieces in his collection. It was most certainly not for economic reasons that Monseigneur opted for gilt-bronze (the argument with which some scholars have explained the phenomenon by the melting down campaigns of the years 1689 and 1709). The more and indeed most likely reason for the exchange of silver for a golden tone is an aesthetic motivation linked with making the still relatively unfamiliar forms of this exotic material conform more readily with the character of French interiors.18

A pair of lidded tureens were also part of the ensemble (fig. 14). While the majority of pieces from this set remained in the Munich Residence until the mid 19th century before being transferred to the newly founded Bavarian National Museum, these pieces remained and were transferred to Veitshöchheim Palace in Franconia in the 1930s where I rediscovered them in 2008. Once again in part of the collection where they historically belong, they are nearly identical to the well-known silvermounted Imari tureen in the J.

On the same console table next to the tureens were the other vessels from Max Emanuel’s garniture, described as ‘2 Kielgeschirr’ referring to the pair of coolers and respective vessels, namely ‘2 Cooler Services of floral Porcelain, without lid, with Silver handles. They are fitted above and below with solid Silver Rims, which from the bottom up to the top are silver mounted on 4 sides’.25 That the garniture of the Elector was once part of a larger service is strongly suggested by the Inventory of the Silberkammer of 1774.26 Here we find tableware that complements the cooler services listed as a group of

Max Emanuel, Elector of Bavaria (1662–1726), was made governor general (stattholder) of the Spanish Netherlands in 1691 and held court at Brussels after 1692. During the War of the Spanish Succession (1701–1715) he sided with the French. After defeats at the battle of Blenheim in 1704 and Ramillies in 1706, he was driven from Bavaria and became an émigré associated with the court of Louis XIV and enjoying Paris society. He was restored to his Bavarian electorship after the Treaty of Baden in 1714 and reluctantly returned to Munich 1715. For an analysis of Max Emanuel’s patronage and collecting, see the author‘s book, Ein Frankreichbündnis der Kunst. Kurfürst Max Emanuel als Auftraggeber und Sammler, Munich: Deutscher Kunstverlag, 2009.

Two gold and enamel cigarette cases by Carl Fabergé, decorated with opaque white champlevé enamel, the thumbpieces set with rose cut diamonds.

Chief Workmaster: Henrik Wigström, St Petersburg 1908-1917.

The abstract patterns used to decorate these cases are reminiscent of designs produced by the Viennese Secessionists, such as Josef Hoffmann and Koloman Moser, who were working for the Wiener Werkstätte during this period.

The cases are both stamped with London import marks for 1913, which suggests that they were retailed through Fabergé’s shop in London on Bond Street.

Magnificent Louis XVI bronze doré and bronze patiné guéridon with bleu turquin marble top and base probably by François Rémond. The finely chiseled frieze portrays children holding grapevine swags alternately centered with birds or squirrels.

Three curved uprights, headed by satyr masks, terminate in patinated seated griffins resting on an incurvated triangular stepped ormoulu and bleu turquin base.

The only other known table of this model, all gilded and now missing its marble plinth is in the Musée Nissim de Camondo in Paris. A similar table in the Palacio Real de El Pardo shares the same frieze and base.

EAST-WEST: The Art of Dialogue Masterpieces of Orientalist Art The

SHAFIK GABR Collection

This unparalleled collection of works, carefully assembled and curated by Shafik Gabr over the last two decades, heralds a new lens through which to understand Orientalist Art of the 19th and 20th centuries. Both emotive and authoritative, these works of art provide a new discourse and understanding of the Arab world that will help to reacquaint the West with the true nature of Eastern cultures. Far more than a historical record of an earlier fashion, this robust group of works of Western tributes to the East charts a line from an earnest curiosity to the complex multicultural preoccupations of our present time. The collection reveals a powerful and mutually beneficial bond in the process, encouraging a renewed and more positive East-West dialogue.

EAST-WEST: THE ART OF DIALOGUE AN INITIATIVE OF THE SHAFIK GABR FOUNDATION MASTERPIECES OF ORIENTALIST ART: THE SHAFIK GABR COLLECTION IS AVAILABLE FROM ALL FINE BOOKSTORES AND ONLINE RETAILERS.
