描述

A Neo-Grec Gilt and Patinated Bronze Tazza, Designed by Ferdinand Levillain and Cast By Ferdinand Barbedienne.

Marked ‘F. Levillain’ to the decoration and stamped ‘F. Barbedienne’ to the underside.

This rare tazza is a fine example of the collaboration between the gifted designer Ferdinand Levillain and the highly acclaimed bronzier Ferdinand Barbedienne. It is decorated with a bas-relief in the ‘Neo-Grec’ or ‘Pompeian’ style with classical figures herding animals in a procession.

Designs in the ‘Neo Grec’ style figured prominently in Barbedienne’s submissions to the 1855 Paris Exposition Universelle and throughout the firm’s production.

法国,约1870年。

Ferdinand Levillain (1837 – 1905) had his debut at the Paris Salon in 1861 and won recognition through the 1860’s and 1870’s for his work with the highly respected Barbedienne.

In 1878 he ceased his collaboration with Barbedienne and triumphed alone at the Exposition Universelle, where he won the gold medal for his work referencing Antiquity.

In 1884 he was awarded a first class medal at the Salon and in 1889 a silver medal at the Exposition Universelle. In 1892 he was recognised with the highly prestigious Légion d’Honneur. Examples of his work are displayed in many museums including the Musée de Lyon and the Musée d’Art Moderne in Paris.

Levillain also collaborated with the Sèvres manufactory and won several medals, which are still visible today at the Louvre Museum and the Musée des Beaux-Arts in Angers.

斐迪南-巴贝迪恩

费迪南-巴贝迪安(1810年8月6日-1892年3月21日)是一位法国金属工人和制造商,他以青铜器创始人而闻名。

他是卡尔瓦多斯省一个小农民的儿子,他的职业生涯是从巴黎的一个墙纸经销商开始的。1838年,他与Achille Collas(1795-1859)合作,后者刚刚发明了一台制造雕像微型铜制复制品的机器。他们一起开始了销售来自欧洲各地博物馆的古董雕像缩影的业务,从而使艺术民主化,使其更容易被家庭接受。从1843年起,他们通过复制在世艺术家的作品扩大了自己的范围,并通过制作珐琅彩的家用物品实现了多样化。随着1870年普法战争的爆发,由于金属的短缺,该公司不得不短暂地转而生产大炮,但之后又恢复了业务。1892年巴贝迪安去世后,他被埋葬在Père-Lachaise公墓,公司由他的侄子古斯塔夫-勒布朗继续经营到1952年。

该公司复制的主要艺术家包括安托万-路易-巴耶和奥古斯特-罗丹。
