Fabergé Museum 5 The Link of Times Cultural Historical Foundation

The collection of the Link of Times Cultural Historical Foundation, established by the Russian entrepreneur Viktor Vekselberg, consists of four thousand pieces of decorative-applied and fi ne art: gold and silver works, paintings, porcelain and bronzes. The collection, which has been devel- oping for a decade and continues to grow, was fi rst presented in its entirety in St. Petersburg’s magnifi cent , itself restored using the Foundation's resources. The heart of the exhibition consists of pieces from the illustrious Russian jewelry fi rm of Carl Fabergé (1846–1920) - the court jeweler to the Russian – purchased by Viktor Vekselberg in early 2004 from the heirs of the American newspaper magnate Malcolm Forbes (1919–1990), who sought aſt er royal jewelry everywhere for half a century. Thus, the famous Forbes collection was saved from (its pieces were orig- inally planned to be sold at auction) and, in essence, from defi nitive liquidation. The mas- terpieces of jewelry, many of which were sold by the in the 1920s and 30s, were repatriated to , marking the beginning of the return of its national artistic heritage. Considering its size, the typological variety and the superlative quality of the artwork it contains, much of which belonged to the imperial family and members of other European royal courts, the collection is, without a doubt, one of the greatest in the world. The grand Blue Room is home to the pinnacle of the arts of the House of Fabergé: the Imperial Easter Eggs, a testament to the skill and mastery of Russian jewelers, stone- cutters, enamellers and artists. These precious articles, with their ingenious surprises, are especially cherished also because they act as monuments to the important events in Russian history at the turn of the 20th century: the fi nal coronation in the , the fi ſt eenth anniversary of the reign of Nicholas II , and the war with Germany. In addition to the Eggs, which were craſt ed on the order of the last of the Romanovs, the Foundation's collection includes Easter giſt s made as giſt s for members of the global elite, such as the Duchess of Marlborough or the gold-mine industrialist Kelch, which are no less magnifi cent or complex than their imperial counterparts. Visitors to the palace will be acquainted with the diverse mediums of the great jeweler's works and with his extraordinary objets de fantaisie, including the precious "Pansy" in a seemingly water-fi lled vase of rock crystal and an exceptional dancing peasant statuette made of diff erent- ly-colored stones (there are only six comparable polychrome statues in the State museums

6 Fabergé Museum of the Russian Federation) as well as his jewelry, accessories, precious haberdashery, man- tle clocks and frames which demonstrate a vast range of guilloché enamels, and silver ornaments in the "original Russian style." A great deal of these works have been gathered by the Link of Times Foundation over the past nine years. According to Viktor Vekselberg, chairman of the Board of Trustees, his employees spent these years "searching for, acquiring and repatriating historically signifi - cant works of Russian art stranded abroad." These include a miniature egg-shaped bonbonnière, which belonged to the Russian Empress Maria Feodorovna's brother, King George I of Greece, rare pieces created for Baron Leopold de Rothschild, and other memorial works, such as enameled gold clocks whose wings are decorated with watercolor portraits of the children of Valdemar of Denmark, another brother of Empress Maria Feodorovna. Along with works from the House of Fabergé, the collection includes other pieces craſt ed by his contemporaries, such as the Imperial Court Suppliers Ivan Khlebnikov, Pavel Ovchinnikov, and Ignatiy Sazikov, who craſt ed a representative wedding service for Grand Duke Konstantin Nikolayevich, as well as such famous silversmiths as Orest Kurlyukov, Antip Kuzmichev, Maria Semyonova, the Bolin family of jewelers, and master goldsmiths Alexander Spiegel, Johann Keibel and Karl Hahn. These and other illustrious Russian jew- elers also fashioned magnifi cent icon-frames, several of which belonged to famous his- torical fi gures. The collection of church utensils and items of personal piety fi ll the Gothic Room of the Shuvalov Palace. Experts from the Foundation have managed to assemble a collection unrivaled in size and quality of the works of the famous Russian enamel paint- er Feodor Rückert, who had no equals in Russia. Other views of decorative-applied art are also on display in the Link of Times Foundation's collection, which rightfully prides itself on its twin malachite krater-vases, which represent some of the best work of the Imperial Porcelain Factory. The vases — one of which depicts court grenadiers in the Throne Room of the , and the oth- er, grenadiers in the Throne Room of the Tuileries Palace — were giſt s from Emperor Nicholas I to the Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Ambassador of France in Russia (1828– 1830, 1833), Casimir-Louis-Victurnien de Rochechouart de Mortemart. The Exhibition Room, Knights' Room and other Rooms of the palace are adorned by the paintings of well-known Russian and European artists, including Konstantin Makovskiy, Henryk Siemiradzki, Ivan Aivazovskiy, Karl Bryullov, Alexei Harlamov, Konstantin Korovin, Louis Valtat, Henri Martin and Auguste Renoir. The Shuvalov Palace is once again full of artistic treasures and henceforth its doors will be open to the residents and guests of St. Petersburg.

□ 1 11 Grand Staircase

Still intact today, the spectacular Grand Staircase and its columns are located in the same place where, at the end of the 18th century, there was an entryway. The staircase was completed in the 1840s by the architect Nikolay Efi mov (who reconstructed, among other things, the Theater Staircase of the Old Hermitage) and is fringed by a gallery for the dis- play of sculptures. The rails of the stairway are made according to drawings by the architect Ieronim Corsini, the designer of the trellis-work at the Sheremetyev Palace located on the oth- er side of the Fontanka River. A magnifi cent and intricately decorated cupola was in- stalled over the staircase using designs by Rudolph Bernhard made in 1859. New apertures for doors were cut at the same time: two for the Blue Room and one for the Anteroom. On the middle level of the staircase, in place of the marble Eve sculpted by an unknown 19th century master, there once stood a bronze bust of the last owner of the palace, Pavel Petrovich (sculptor — Leonid Sherwood). The upper level between the passages to the Blue Room featured a marble group: a copy of the monument to Alexandra Pavlovna in Pavlovsk, craſt ed by Ivan Martos. Both sculptures were given to the . In their place there is an 18th century Italian replica of the an- tique statue of Apollo Belvedere. It was brought by Dmitry Naryshkin from Rome where, by some accounts, he paid 10,000 rubles in gold for it. Until the latest restoration, it adorned the White Column Room.

The Knights' Room was decorated according to a design made in 1844 by de Simon and partially altered in 1859 by Rudolph Bernhard. Later, Pyotr Pavlovich Shuvalov set up his library here. A frieze here depicts a medieval knights' tournament, thereby giving the room its name and partly determining the nature of the room's current exhibition. The sculptural ornamentation of the room is echoed to an extent by the bas-reliefs which reproduce the widely-known medallions made by Feodor Tolstoy depicting the Great Patriotic War of 1812 and the military campaigns of the following two years. Life in the Russian army in the middle of the 19th century is portrayed by the water- colors of Karl Piratskiy and his successor, Pyotr Balashov. The works of these masters of the battle genre are rarely found in museum collections and few details about them are known; however, both enjoyed well-deserved recognition in their time. Amongst the silver works on display in the hall, two pieces in particular stand out: a goblet and drinking horn adorned with equine protomai and craſt ed in the mid-19th cen- tury by masters of the St. Petersburg branch of the Sazikov fi rm. Special attention should be paid to the terrines given to the Corps of Pages by , as well as to the unique silver, ten-kilogram presentation kovsh made by Julius Rappoport, an out- standing workmaster of the House of Fabergé, and given by Prince Vladimir Sergeevich Obolenskiy to the offi cers of his regiment in 1891. The room not only features displays of objects linked to the history of the Imperial Russian Army's land forces, but to her Naval Fleet as well. For example, Henrik Wigström, the beloved disciple and apprentice to Mikhail Perkhin, portrayed an image of the of Kronshtadt and a naval cruiser using the champlevé enamel technique on a gold ciga- rette case produced by the House of Fabergé in 1910. A special group of memorial items consists of embedded ship boards: metal plates with the ship's name, the date its keel was laid, and other information. Interestingly, both of the ship boards on display in the Military Memorial exhibition were made for laying

14 Fabergé Museum the keel of cruisers named "Rurik." One of them, completed in 1890 by Pavel Ovchinnikov's fi rm, was for the fi rst ship in a planned series of armor-clad ocean cruisers with increased water displacement. Her foundations were laid on May 19, 1890; she was put to sea on October 22, 1892, joined the fl eet on October 16, 1895 and heroically sank in battle with Japanese ships on August 14, 1904. The second board was completed in 1905 by the House of Fabergé (specifi cally, master Andres Johann Nevalainen) and meant for an armor-clad cruis- er in the Imperial Russian Fleet. Built on English wharfs (her foundations laid in 1905, put to sea on November 4, 1906, fully equipped by July 1909, and sold for scrap aſt er the ), she was the last and largest ship in this class in Russia and the fl agship of the Baltic Fleet during World War I.

"What extraordinary speed: we mature not in centuries, but in decades." This familiar ex- pression, spoken by Nikolay Karamzin, is perfectly suited to the character of the Russian jewelry industry of the 19th century. In fact, in just 20 or 30 years, the production of multi- farious silver, gold and other jewelry pieces in Russia acquired a decidedly industrial charac- ter. The nation's fi rst jewelry plants, founded between the 1810s and 1840s, became well known by the middle of the 19th century with full membership in the World Exhibition, and were a prominent phenomenon in the European art industry. The oldest jewelry company in Russia is the Sazikov fi rm. The company's founder, Pavel Sazikov, had a small workshop in Moscow. His son Ignatiy greatly expanded the business by complementing the Moscow plant with a St. Petersburg factory where, learning from European experience, he began incorporating machinery and a division of labor into the enterprise. In 1857, Ignatiy Sazikov secured permission to call his factory the Court Silverware Company. Contemporaries of Ignatiy Sazikov and the literary critics of the 19th century continually described him as "fi rst" and, indeed, this word best characterizes his work. "Sazikov was the fi rst to give goldsmith workmastership a new focus. He was the fi rst to feel the necessity of getting off the beaten track and of giving his work a refi ned char- acter more reminiscent of ancient, national designs." One can see that there is a sense of equality created between the understanding of "new," "refi ned" and "national," and Sazikov was credited with turning to images and themes taken from Russian history as well as symbols, details and more based on national heritage. The tea set in the "original Russian style" is unique. The set was made in 1848 in honor of the marriage of Grand Duke Konstantin Nikolayevich. Its ornamentation, made according to a sketch by the artist and archaeologist Feodor Solntsev, includes inscriptions of ancient script and imperial symbols: the two-headed eagle holds sea charts — symbols of nav- igation — in its beak and talons; the Grand Duke had dedicated his whole life to sailing.

22 Fabergé Museum The Moscow branch of the House of Fabergé, opened in 1887, produced quite a few items in a neo-Russian style which developed within the trends of Art Nouveau. An elegant silver tea and coff ee service with embossed patterns on marsh-colored matte enamel is distinctive. Decorative boxes, cases and other items imbued with the soul of nationalistic romanticism at the dawn of the 20th century are also adorned with similar, understated and dark tones of velvety enamel, characteristic of Art Nouveau pieces. A unique sculptural composition can be seen in the cast pencil-holder with a half-fi gure of Prince Ivan Kalita leaning over a money bag. Cast eagles trim the kovsh made in the studio of Julius Rappoport (the leading sil- versmith in the House of Fabergé). This kovsh was awarded to Prince Golitsyn by Emperor Nicholas II in 1899 for the former's services in the development of domestic wine production.

The House of Fabergé, founded in 1842 in St. Petersburg, produced a wide spectrum of works: from unique pieces craſt ed by the order of the Imperial Family, European mon- archs and Eastern sovereigns, to mass-produced goods (decorations, silverware, precious ornamentation and cut-stone sculptures). The pinnacle of the work of Carl Fabergé, head of the family business in 1872, is considered to be the Easter Eggs with their surpris- es, made to the order of the last of the Romanovs — the Emperors Alexander III and Nicholas II . The Fabergé Museum's collection includes nine Imperial Easter Eggs, the sec- ond largest collection of such Imperial Eggs in the world: that of the Kremlin Armory in Moscow is larger by a single Egg. The Link of Times collection is the best in the world in terms of its quantity of large Easter Eggs made by the House of Fabergé: 14 such Eggs are on display in this room, as well as a miniature picture frame in the shape of a heart — the surprise from the lost Egg of 1897. The Fabergé Museum's collection is also signifi cant because it includes the fi rst Imperial Easter Egg, the Hen Egg, made in 1885, and which inaugurated the celebrated Imperial Easter series; the Coronation Egg, dedicated to the coronation of Nicholas II and Alexandra Feodorovna; and, lastly, the fi nal Imperial Egg — The Order of St. George Egg. Made during the years of the First World War and given by Nicholas II to his mother, Maria Feodorovna, it was the last Fabergé Easter Egg, which the widowed Empress managed to take with her when she fl ed Bolshevik Russia forever. All told, the House of Fabergé created 50 Imperial Eggs. Each required a year's work, beginning immediately aſt er Easter and just barely fi nishing by Holy Week the following year, aſt er which Carl Fabergé personally delivered the new Easter masterpiece to the , who was invariably stunned by the new subject, the originality of the composition and the virtuoso workmastership.

34 Fabergé Museum Fabergé created precious Easter giſt s not only for the Russian Imperial Family but for members of the world's titled and industrial elite as well. And so, in 1902, Fabergé creat- ed a spectacular Easter Egg-clock for the Duchess Consuelo of Marlborough, a member of the American Vanderbilt family. Between 1898 and 1904, seven Easter Eggs (beginning with the Hen Egg and ending with the Chanticleer Egg) were prepared by the House of Fabergé for Varvara Petrovna Bazanova (wife of Alexander Kelch). Bazanova came from a very wealthy family of Moscow merchants who owned gold mines as well as railway construction and shipping companies.

The national coat of arms fi rst appeared next to the name of Carl Fabergé in 1885. The two-headed eagle certifi ed the jeweler's right to call himself a Supplier to the court of His Imperial Majesty. Business with Suppliers to the court was conducted through His Imperial Majesty's Cabinet which, among other things, was in charge of the production, storage and issuing of imperial giſt s, called "Cabinet giſt s." These giſt s were granted on all sorts of occasions and for various reasons, including as off erings to the Tsar, in honor of public celebrations, at diplomatic and other important visits, and of course simply by the private wishes of important persons. Snuff and tobacco boxes, being symbols of nobility and wealth, were the most common giſt s, according to the frequency with which they are mentioned in the Cabinet account book. The widespread of the 18th century in Petersburg of snuffi ng tobacco gradu- ally died down over time, but even at the turn of the 20th century, snuff and tobacco boxes remained one of the most popular and widely used giſt s in the court. Snuff and tobacco boxes could be decorated with national symbols, the monograms of em- inent personages or portraits of Emperors, from to Nicholas II. A richly-hued Sayan nephrite plate of the highest quality, the largest known such piece, features gold enamel handles adorned with the monograms of Nicholas II and Alexandra Feodorovna in diamonds. A picture frame with a photographic portrait of Nicholas II is unparalleled in terms of its size and the magnifi cence of its fi nish. The frame, which is made of carved rock crystal, is decorated with the monograms of Empress Maria Feodorovna.

42 Fabergé Museum One of the most important spheres of the House of Fabergé's artistic activity was the craſt ing of so-called objets de fantaisie, or objets d'art: artistic jewelry which oſt en served no practical purpose. These include fl owers and animal fi gurines made of semi-pre- cious stones, tiny watering pots, miniature furniture, and medieval reliquaries. Such items served as original and quite expensive souvenirs. Carl Fabergé himself spoke of them thus- ly: "There are those who long ago grew tired of diamonds and pearls, and of course some- times it's awkward to give precious giſt s; these knick-knacks are just what they need!"

outside the cases □ 4 82 Jewelry, Precious Goods, Accessories and Clocks

Along with its unique, single-copy works for special orders, the Petersburg House of Fabergé, as well as its branches in Moscow, Kiev and Odessa, put out mass-produced goods (clocks, picture frames, cigar-cases) which were designed for all tiers of society and whose prices ranged from a few rubles to a few thousand. Even at this level of produc- tion, premier class of jewelry workmastership, the originality of design and striking sense of style and materials remained unchanged. Fabergé masters managed to demonstrate the rich decorative possibilities of the most varied and, it would seem, un-jewelry-like of materials, such as simple cork, celluloid, horn, steel, wood and leather. These materials were widely used for making cigar-cases of vari- ous shapes and styles. Cigar-cases encrusted with gold nuggets and coated with transpar- ent enamel over guilloché are especially spectacular. Enamel work was done in a specialized atelier under the guidance of Nikolay Petrov (1895–1917). The enamels, which came in 144 diff erent colors, were applied to a back- ground of gold and silver. The fi rst gives a warm tone and the second, a cool one. Special guilloché machines drew various patterns, including rays, scales, waves, and moiré. Coats of enamel, each of which was polished, were layered until the workmaster attained the de- sired depth of color. One or two coats of a diff erently colored enamel under the other coats produced a mother-of-pearl eff ect. White and warm pink enamels are particularly beautiful; the white was named "oyster" for its pearlescent tone and the pink, "salmon." The latter was used to coat the frame of the chalcedony parasol handle which belonged to Empress Alexandra Feodorovna as well as diamond-studded opera glasses and a magnifi cent triangular frame with a pho- to of Grand Prince Alexander Mikhailovich and Grand Princess Xenia Alexandrovna. A blue-enameled clock in the shape of a fan also serves as a frame for photographs of a Russian aristocratic couple in ancient national .

60 Fabergé Museum A collection of ladies' belt buckles of various shapes and styles demonstrates the rain- bow of transparent guilloché enamels and is the only such collection in the world in terms of its quality and number of pieces. The pre-eminence of Russian enamellers at the turn of the 20th century was recognized even by the master craſt smen of France, the birth- place of guilloché enameling in the 18th century. A separate group of items consists of those made with deep blue and bright yellow transparent enamel bands, manufactured by the House of Fabergé and commissioned by Baron Leopold de Rothschild in the colors of his jockey at the King's races, at which he dis- tributed the items to friend and acquaintances as a greeting or, on the other hand, a taunt. Very few jewelry pieces made by Fabergé have survived. The most valuable and extrav- agant were sold off by the Bolsheviks via the "Antikvariat," a bureau which vended valuable Russian goods in foreign markets, and the majority of the rest were destroyed. Stones, especially those large and rare, were pried out of their settings, which were then melted down into ingots. Fortunately, a unique pendant has survived to this day: it features a frame inscribed with aquamarine around a rose-cut diamond and topped with a characteristic jewelry bow, once one of the leitmotifs of Fabergé jewelry art. In the early 20th century, the House of Fabergé produced large quantities of jewelry featuring chalcedony, a translucent stone with pale and "cloudy" tones. The fi rm's design books call pieces with these stones, which have been linked to religious and spiritual sources since ancient times, "meccas," as the prophet Muhammad wore a chalcedony ring.

04 15 89 08 11 93 Enamel Work from the Court Firm of Pavel Ovchinnikov and Moscow Artels. 19th Century Russian Porcelain

The Renaissance of enameling in 19th century Russia is traditionally linked to the name Pavel Ovchinnikov. Born into a family of peasant serfs belonging to Prince Pyotr Mikhailovich Volkonskiy, as a talented youth he was sent to study in Moscow. Aſt er beginning an apprenticeship in the Alexei Ovchinnikov brothers factory (on display in this room is a rare example of this factory's work: a round, champlevé, silver box in its originally case, decorated with painted enamel), Pavel Ovchinnikov was heading his own business by 1851 and in twenty years took his workmastership to the height of perfection. The manual production of Ovchinnikov's company processed up to 4900 kilograms of silver each year. In 1873, a St. Petersburg division was opened with a shop on Bolshaya Morskaya Ulitsa and a factory which produced high-quality table silverware. Ovchinnikov became a Supplier to the Imperial Court in 1881 and in 1896 his sons and successors, of whom the eldest in the business was Mikhail, reaffi rmed this title. That same year at a Venetian exhibition, Ovchinnikov was awarded the Iron Cross and a large gold medal and was also given the honor of being named Supplier to King Victor Emmanuel II of Italy. The fi rm traditionally received gold medals at All-Russian and global exhibitions, and in 1878 Ovchinnikov became a Knight of the Legion of Honor. The astonishing progress and success of the fi rm was enabled by partnerships with the most famous artists, sculptors and architects of the day: Ippolit Monighetti, Viktor Hartmann, Evgeny Lansere, Alexander Ober, Dmitry Chichagov, Alexander Opekushin, Lev Dal, and Andrei Zhukovskiy. Its success was also aided by the fact that the fi rm was the fi rst jewelry factory in Russia to open a school of production with applied drawing classes and practical training in silversmithing techniques. The Pavel Ovchinnikov fi rm, a leader in the fi eld, was the fi rst to produce rich enameled souvenirs and giſt items in the old Russian style — kovshes, plates and goblets — em- bossed with full sheets of metal in the so-called repoussé style. The fi rm's works using

86 Fabergé Museum enamel over fi ligree set themselves apart by their fi ne ornamentation and exquisite illus- trations, the "artistic completion" of every detail and the rich, harmonious and limited color spectrum. The fi rm oſt en utilized the old champlevé, or pitted enamel, technique in which recessed areas are engraved into the metal to be fi lled with enamel. Vivid enamels were used to make various sorts of compositions whose designs were based on the works of famous artists at the time; the artwork executed in enamel included ornamental typographic ligatures. The cover of a splendid album given in 1902 to Émile Loubet, the President of the French Republic, by French ex-patriots living in Moscow features a picturesque enamel Sirin bird among fantasy-like fl oral ornamenta- tion. Lastly, the craſt smen of the Pavel Ovchinnikov fi rm were masters of one of the most labor-intensive techniques: plique-à-jour enamel, used, as a rule, for the ornamentation of small items such as wine and glasses, candy dishes, and chalices. The White Room and the Sky Blue Room behind it feature signifi cant works of Russian porcelain, mainly made by the Imperial Porcelain Plant. The "Roses” series of decorative plates has great signifi cance within this porcelain collection, having been made in the artistic studio of Prince Nikolay Borisovich Yusupov between 1824 and 1827 in Arkhangelskoye. The designs for the plates originates with the painted engravings in the "Roses” atlas (P.-J. Redouté. Les Roses. Paris, 1817– 1824, t. 1–3), in which the well-known French botanist and artist Pierre-Joseph Redouté depicted fl owers growing in the gardens of Joséphine de Beauharnais.

Ivan Khlebnikov spent a great number of years selling gold and silver products and in 1871 founded a factory in Moscow. From 1879, when he opened a division in the Northern Capital with a shop on Nevsky Prospekt, the Muscovite factory owner became known as a Petersburg merchant. From the very fi rst years of his factory work, Khlebnikov worked under ducal and im- perial commissions and in 1879 was awarded the title of Supplier to the Imperial Court. Additionally, Khlebnikov served as Supplier to the courts of Prince Chernogorskiy as well as the Kings of Serbia, Denmark and Holland. Through the fulfi llment of the national romanticism style in the work of Khlebnikov and other Russian producers in the third quarter of the 19th century, great developments were made in imitation techniques via which skillful embossing bestowed the characters of various substances on other materials. Seemingly metal-shackled "barrels," engraved "bags" of coarse canvas, and "wooden" peasant salt bins served as tea-caddies, cigar-cases and saltshakers. These belong to the category of objets de fantaisie, or objets d'art, and are thereby artistic curios. Another illustrative example of such products is a device for serving punch with "lin- en" towels and table sayings and proverbs, made by another famous Moscow fi rm, that of Antip Ivanovich Kuzmichev. This device, just like a jewelry box in the shape of the Imperial , was designed for the famous Tiff any jewelry fi rm. The Antip Kuzmichev fi rm's high level of production is spoken for by a silver and niello shrine for the Robe of Christ, which has been preserved in the Uspensky Cathedral in the . Despite the fact that Antip Kuzmichev's enterprise, founded in 1856, was quite large, only solitary items are on display in Russian museums. A great source of pride for the Link of Times collection is a set of works from the Moscow "painter on enamel" Feodor Rückert (1840–1917). Not a single piece of work from this famous enameller had been published in this country and his legacy in Russian state museums amounts to less than two dozen items.

96 Fabergé Museum A native of Alsace-Lorraine and a Prussian subject, Friedrich Moritz Rückert (Feodor Ivanovich Rückert) subtly felt the beauty and poetry of Russian antiquity. He founded a stu- dio at Vorontsovskaya Ulitsa 23/3, the same house in which his large family lived. Feodor Rückert enthusiastically worked with the Moscow division of the House of Fabergé as well as with the undertaking of Mattei Lombardo, the Kiev-based business of Joseph Marshak and with the fi rms of Orest Kurlyukov and Pavel Ovchinnikov. Created in the of national romanticism, the ornately decorated pieces justly served as diplomatic off erings, prizes and souvenir giſt s. However, the studio also produced completely utilitarian items, including inkstands, goblets and cigar-cases. Thanks to the anniversary of the Romanov dynasty in 1913, Russian society was seized by "Boyar-mania," expressed by items with vivid enamel panels decorated using the en plein technique. The most beloved subjects were A Boyar Wedding by Konstantin Makovskiy, The Bogatyrs and Knight at the Crossroads by Viktor Vasnetsov, as well as many scenes from 17th century Moscow life based on watercolors by Sergey Solomko. Several of the items are decorated with urban landscape scenes. Rückert's early works include the typical techniques of Moscow enamellers, such as fi ne fi ligree swirls on a light-blue background, called "lace," and vivid, polychrome glares. Gradually, the once vibrant range of colors was overtaken by cool and restrained tones, and the homogeneous enamel coats replaced by enamels with colored ticking. Rückert's later work was characterized by the "dim" color spectrum fashionable at the beginning of the 20th century, dominated by brown and ocher tones, fi ligree woven into tight clusters and hatch work of gilt amalgam. The fantastical, somewhat grotesque shapes of his cases, kovshes and grace cups matched the abstract, geometric patterns and stylized graphic themes of works by Ivan Bilibin as well as Abramtsevo and Talashkino craſt smen.

The exhibition room is found in the former location of a large Buff et Room which was con- verted into a large offi ce by the fi rst at the end of the 1850s. Of the objects once concentrated in the fi rst-class Shuvalov art collection, a triptych of 17th century Flemish works remains built into the wall: The Annunciation, Adoration of the Magi and Saint Anne Preaching in the Shrine, and of the former interior fi nishing, there remains a fi replace with an 18th century French bas-relief depicting a childish Bacchanalia, as does an analogous composition in the anteroom. A large group of items made of semi-precious stones by the craſt smen of the House of Fabergé and its contemporaries — most signifi cantly, Avenir Sumin — gives an idea of the highly developed level of Russian stone carving at the turn of the 20th century. Originally, this fi eld was secondary in the House of Fabergé but as the popularity of such products grew, it came to the forefront. Consequently, Fabergé, having fruitful- ly cooperated with the Yekaterinburg lapidary factory, which consisted of the Ministry of the Imperial Court and which from the beginning of the 18th century produced items to adorn royal and to be given as giſt s by imperial purposes, decided to open his own stone sculpture studio on Angliiskiy Prospekt in St. Petersburg. Skilled craſt smen from the Urals, who understood the natural beauty of minerals, were invited to work there and developed new, unexpected types of products. They demonstrated the rich palette of gem- stones, the majority of which originated in their own birthplaces, in all its glory. Nephrite, which came in varied shades and was free from cracks, was especially favored by Fabergé. This stone, generally the Sayan variety thanks to its durability and rich, spinach-green tone, was frequently employed in Imperial Easter Eggs but even more oſt en found itself used for clocks, barometers, desktop bell pushes, trays and cigar-cases all of which were marked by the highest level of artisanal workmastership. Items made of multicolored Ural jasper, agate, malachite and unique Sedelnikov rho- donite are quite signifi cant and interesting. This last stone was used to create a tray with

114 Fabergé Museum a bright pink or, as they say, "the very highest scarlet" color. Carefully selected rock crystals were used to create original jewelry boxes with multiple sections. Among the painted works in this room, the central attraction is the monumental work The Judgment of Paris by the brush of Konstantin Makovskiy, a historic painter, fashionable portrait artist, creator of genre pieces and one of the most famous artists of the salon-ac- ademic trend. Makovskiy was awarded the Grand Gold Medal and the Order of the Legion of Honor at the World Exhibition in Paris in 1899 for his work on this painting as well as on Demon and Tamara and Death of Ivan the Terrible. Notably, even before the exhibi- tion was opened, The Judgment of Paris, rendered in a picturesque style, was purchased by the American collector Charles Schumann. Some of the earliest works displayed here include a sketch by Karl Bryullov depicting the mass held in the Basilica di Maggiore upon Pope Pious IX's return to Rome and View of the Academy of Sciences and the Palace Embankment in St. Petersburg by Vladimir Ammon, both of which date to the mid-19th century. Works by the unsurpassed seascape painter Ivan Aivazovskiy, as popular in his time as he is today, as well as Outskirts by Vasily Polenov, are also important pieces in the collection, as are two paintings by Henryk Siemiradzki, a brilliant representa- tive of late academism, and women's portraits by Alexei Kharlamov.

The Count's study, known as the Gothic Room, today houses a splendid collection of reli- gious items. Of particular value to the set are icons from the , the "Royal Gates" from сirca 1600, and decorative silver icon-settings from the turn of the 20th century. A Russian could not have imagined life without icons: when a child was born, a birth icon featuring a patron saint of the same name was ordered for him or her; marriages were bless- ed with nuptial icons, familial happiness was secured thanks to the martyrs Saint Guria, Saint Shamona and Saint Abibus; and small icons of Saint George were carried into war. Small images rested over one's heart under and were suspended from the head of one's bed. Larger icons were placed on one's desk and folding icons were brought when one traveled. Every Christian considered their guardian angel to be their personal protector and icons with images of such angels began appearing in the 16th century, as did those featuring patron saints. Beginning with the reign of Nicholas, the upper layers of 19th century Russian society began to view icons not only as items of religious piety but also as a focus of truly Russian spiritual culture. The ancient traditions of icon painting were carefully preserved and devel- oped by the Old Believers, or those that did not agree with the church reforms of Patriarch Nikon. "Stroganoff Letters," that is, icons made at the turn of the 16th -17th centuries by orders of the Tsar and wealthy Stroganoff patrons, were especially valued. In the 19th cen- tury, icon painters from the famous villages of Palekh and Msteran near Vladimir developed their own style based on that of the Stroganoff pieces; these icons were highly valued even by the Imperial family: Joseph Chirikov, Mikhail Dikaryov and Vasily Guryanov, all natives of Msteran, were honored with the title of Supplier to the Imperial Court. In Byzantium, the veneration of sacred images had been from time immemorial ex- pressed through the use of valuable materials — ivory, silver, and even gold. Much more oſt en, however, icons were painted on a board, and the fi eld, background, and occasionally the clothing of the depicted saint were covered in silver leaf. Additionally, the enameled icon-setting was adorned with pearls and precious stones. This tradition dated back to Old

126 Fabergé Museum Rus. The icon-setting was considered to be the vestment of the icon, or, literally, its "robe" or "." Other details carried such names as "venets" (halo), "oplechye" (mantle), and "ochelye" (forehead-wrap), the latter two of which being derived from plecho, shoulders, and chelo, brow, respectively. Unfortunately, only a few pieces from the pre-Mongol period have survived. The beau- tiful icon-settings made using various jewelry techniques, such as embossing, engraving, fi ligree, granulation, niello and painted enamel, were the creations of Grand Ducal and Tsar master craſt smen of the 15th-16th centuries. The artistic heritage of Byzantium and Ancient Rus inspired Russian jewelers of the second half of the 19th and beginning of the 20th centuries to create icon-settings in Russian style. Such icon-settings were the work of leading Russian jewelers: Pavel Ovchinnikov, Ivan Khlebnikov, Pavel Sazikov, Karl Hahn and Vladimir Morozov, as well as the fi rms of Feodor Verkhoventsev, Dmitry Smirnov, Orest Kurlyukov, Dmitry Shelaputin, Nikolay Taravov, Sergey Zharkov and "P. I. Olovyanishnikov and Sons." A special group is made up of images framed in icon-settings made by the House of Fabergé and the collaborator of the Moscow branch, Feodor Rückert. Icons can be distinguished from ordinary paintings in that they are simultaneously sacred objects and works of art, and as witnesses of history, they preserve the memory of their owners. Such is the folding icon given as a giſt to the General Governor of Moscow Vladimir Andreevich Dolgorukov by the Alexander Community of Sisters of Mercy or that which belonged to Grand Duchess Maria Pavlovna, the "Selected Saints" icon. Another example is the exquisite miniature golden folding icon of the Karl Hahn Petersburg Court Firm with a replica of the miracle-working icons of the Northern Capital connected to the name and era of its founder, Peter the Great. A fi nal piece is the icon "St. Nicholas the Miracle Worker," painted by Mikhail Dikaryov and framed by the Studio of Yakov Mishukov, a giſt to the last Russian Emperor from the Old Believers of Moscow.

□ 8 149 Turn of the 20th Century Russian and European fi ne art

The upper scullery, expanded and transformed by Rudolph Bernhard into the Small Buff et Room, was also a place for keeping ceramics from the Shuvalov Collection. Today, this room features pieces by French and Russian artists whose work is traditionally associated with impressionism and the other "-isms" that followed. A special place is given to the Pierre-Auguste Renoir painting "Square of Saint Trinity in Paris" (1893). Renoir was a French painter, graphic artist and sculptor in addition to being one of the founders and most well-known representatives of impressionism. The artist uses plein air impressions to masterfully convey the dynamic atmosphere of the big city. "Seaside at Anthéor" by Louis Valtat, a post-impressionist, is characteristic of the al- most Van Gogh-like brush strokes the artist uses to convey the power of the natural ele- ments. Valtat was a friend of Renoir and one of the founders of Fauvism. View of Le Saint-Cirq-Lapopie (~1930), by the neo-impressionist, pointillist and sym- bolist painter Henri Martin, seems to be imbued with the air of spring. Aſt er beginning his studies of the works of the old masters in Italy, Martin later driſt - ed away from the academic style. From 1900 he lived in southern France, inspired there to make poetic landscape paintings noted for their search for new uses of light. Recreations of the transient states of nature and man, the diff usion of light and air in the environment, and an infatuation with the nuances of color are typical of the works of Konstantin Korovin and Sergey , whose names are associated with the de- velopment of impressionism in Russian art. The latter is the artist of "View of the Moscow" Kremlin (1912). "Summer in Gurzuf" (1917), painted by Korovin at his own dacha, blinds the viewer with the bright colors of a southern day. A light breeze seems to waſt from a painting by Konstantin Gorbatov, with its bright bouquet on a veranda covered in vines whose grape clusters, translucent in the sun, shimmer like gemstones. A vase featuring illustrations of fl owers and fruits on a pastoral background de- serves special attention; it was painted in 1859 by a leading artist at that time of Imperial Porcelain Plant, Feodor Krasovskiy.

outside the cases □ 4 171 Russian enamel

There is no style of Russian enamel work from the second half of the 19th and beginning of the 20th century, which would not be on display in the collection of the cultural and historical Link of Times Foundation. The rich artistic possibilities of the champlevé enameling technique can be seen in the diverse works of the Pavel Ovchinnikov fi rm. The most exquisite piece is a tea and coff ee service in which enamel lace is shaded by clean, brushed metal. Virtuoso examples of plique-à-jour enamel can be found in a whole group of items made by the Grachev Brothers Firm of St. Petersburg. Along with Western European and Eastern cultures, the masters' inspiration for these artistic works was, of course, Russian antiquity. The neo-Russian style, a result of "conscious, refi ned styling," became the dominant tendency in silver and enamel work at the turn of the 20th century. An appeal to folk art, whose poetic ideals and principles of form had been shaped over the centuries, brought about an increased usage of images of heroes from Russian folklore in artistic decoration. At the beginning of the 20th century, the appearance of such objects was transformed through the use of enamel on fi ligree. As the range of colors was repeatedly widened, the paints lost their locality and gained a semitone and vivid glares. Enamel was no longer only used to fi ll spaces between fi ligree wires but also the background of objects whose surface took on the appearance of an elegant, decorative panel. Occasionally, this surface was further adorned with additional, multi-colored cabochons. Kovshes, cups and chalices of various shapes and sizes, most oſt en decorated with fi li- gree enamel, served as prizes and giſt s for a wide array of jubilees, memorable occasions, and competitions. Salt-cellars with lace fretwork tops in the shape of suspended village-style salt containers, tiny kovshes, and huge, exaggerated wine-bowls all enjoyed immense pop- ularity and served as cups at receptions, balls and masquerades. This room houses a dis- play of original works made by such famous Moscow craſt smen and businesses as Orest Kurlyukov, Konstantin Skvortsov, Nikolay Zverev, Maria Semyonova, Nikolay Tarabrov, and Ivan Saltykov, as well as the Petersburg fi rms of Alexander Lyubanin and Ivan Morozov.

152 Fabergé Museum A large number of gorgeous works in enamel on fi ligree in the neo-Russian style were made by Moscow artels of jewelers and silversmiths established en masse in the 1910s. They represented new forms of craſt smen associations, which appeared, with the goal of "enabling their members to off er the consumer the product of their work master- ship without third-party mediation and to ensure the accurate and conscientious execu- tion of orders received by the artels as the responsibility of all of its members." Master craſt smen who leſt leading jewelry enterprises oſt en joined the artelss, which explains the high level of their work. Moreover, their relative freedom and the absence of artistic dictates allowed the artisans to produce original and bold works by their own decision. Just as in the large Moscow fi rms, the artels could produce works using the most varied of enamel techniques. And so, a powder-box from the Six Co-operative is decorated with both painting on enamel and with enamel on fi ligree, and on several items from the Eleventh Artel one can see "strokes" of gold amalgam, just as in the works of the fa- mous Moscow master Feodor Rückert.
