FRANÇOIS PASCAL SIMON GERARD (Rome 1770 - Paris 1837)
FRANÇOIS PASCAL SIMON GERARD (Rome 1770 - Paris 1837) The Head of Venus Black chalk, with stumping and touches of white chalk, on pale grey paper. 215 x 170 mm. (8 1/2 x 6 3/4 in.) This fine drawing is a study for the head of Venus in Baron Gérard’s canvas of The Judgement of Paris, painted in 1812; a work that was later destroyed by the artist and is only known today through a line engraving after the painting1. (An earlier variant of the subject, painted by Gerard in 1804, was also destroyed by the artist.) Three preparatory drawings for the painting of 1812 - a compositional study in oil and another in pencil, as well as a pencil study for the figures of Venus and Cupid - were on the New York art market in 1992, while another study for the entire composition was on the art market in 1996. Stylistically comparable chalk drawings by Baron Gérard include a head of a young woman in the Louvre and a portrait of the artist’s young assistant, Mlle. Julie Duvidal de Montferrier, in the collection of the Musée Vivenel in Compiègne. The attribution of the present sheet has been confirmed by Alain Latreille. Provenance: An unidentified collector’s mark stamped in red in the verso. Artist description: François Gérard spent much of his youth in Rome, where his father was part of the household of the French Ambassador to the Papal States. He returned with his family to Paris in 1780, and entered the studio of the sculptor Augustin Pajou, later studying with the painter Nicolas-Guy Brenet, and, from 1786, with Jacques-Louis David.

Houdon and Neoclassical Sculpture
Houdon and Neoclassical Sculpture ... Jean Antoine Houdon (1741-1828) A pupil of Michel-Ange Slodtz (1705-1764), Houdon enjoyed a place unrivalled in the history of sculpture : his long career presided over the development of Neoclassical statuary from the end of the Ancien Régime to the fall of the First Empire. Serving the administration of the king’s buildings, like that of Catherine II of Russia or of the Duke of Saxe-Gotha, he tackled all genres from the reinterpretation of past models (Diana the Huntress, 1776) to the initiation of new canons (the écorché figure or “flayed man”, 1767). A reputed portraitist, he produced an important gallery of his famous (or lesser-known) peers which forms a particularly representative ensemble of his art. Gallery The retrospective portrait of Molière*, a plaster copy produced by the artist for the Houdon Comédie-Française (France’s national theatre) still bears the stamp of rocaille sculpture – true to the canonical image of the great playwright depicted in ordinary dress and wearing a skullcap, this is an outstanding piece of sculpture with its piercing gaze, flowing tresses ... and the skilful twisting of its kerchief. As in the case of his Jean-Jacques Rousseau* created after the philosopher’s death Neoclassicism mask, Voltaire* cannot be considered to be a realistic portrait of the thinker, whom Houdon met only in 1778, a few days before his death. Yet this effigy was to emerge as the image par excellence of the patriarch of Ferney. Depicting Voltaire in a full cloak that masked the decrepitude of old age, Houdon focussed ..

A Fine Pair of Gilt and Patinated Bronze Seven-Light Candelabra
Suse Frères A Fine Pair of Gilt and Patinated Bronze Seven-Light Candelabra after a design by Clodion Circa: Circa 1890 Circa 1890 65 cm (25 ⁵/ inches) Gilt-Bronze France Stamped "Susse Fres" A Fine Pair of Gilt and Patinated Bronze Seven-Light Candelabra, After A Model By Clodion, Cast by Suse Frères. Stamped 'Susse Fres'. The candelabra are in the form of patinated bronze vases cast in a classical form after the model by Clodion, with masks depicting chimerical ibex flanked by laurel swags, above a finely carved relief of young Bacchanals at play. The vases are surmounted by acanthus collars with central stems issuing scrolling foliate cast candlearms with eagle head finials and terminating in fluted circular nozzles. Each vase is raised on a fluted circular soccle put down on a square section re-entrant red marble base with gilt-bronze foliate mounts and toupie feet. The patinated vases, cast with a classical iconography which blends architectural elements of antiquity with the sensibility of the ‘ancien régime' are after a model by the celebrated sculptor Clodion (1738- 1814), made during his time at the French Academy in Rome from 1762 to 1771. One noted terracotta example, formerly in the collection of the princely Russian Dolgoroukov family, is now in the Hermitage Museum, St. Petersburg (H.CK-2093), exhibited at the Clodion exhibition, musee du Louvre in 1992. A related example in marble, notably in the treatment of the masks, is in the Wallace Collection, London (S32). Clodion's design for this pair of vases may have been influenced by a chalk drawing for a vase by François Boucher from circa 1761-1762 in which we see Bacchanalian parades and acanthus detail that is similar to Clodion's vase designs.

From Montmartre to Montparnasse, Paris’s neighborhoods have played definitive roles in the narratives of nineteenth- and twentieth-century art history, as urban environments where art practice evolved through relationships between local people and city spaces.1 Yet, when it comes to eighteenth-century art history, the city has been far less present. Despite our field’s concerns with networks of artistic sociability or the collaborative nature of so much eighteenth-century art production, and despite the emergence in this period of an artistic engagement with city life and space—for instance, in street scenes like Philibert- Louis Debucourt’s View of the Louvre and Rue Fig.

MATERIALITY, the MODEL, and the MYTH of ORIGINS: PROBLEMS in EIGHTEENTH-CENTURY EUROPEAN TERRACOTTA and ITS RECEPTION by LAUREN
MATERIALITY, THE MODEL, AND THE MYTH OF ORIGINS: PROBLEMS IN EIGHTEENTH-CENTURY EUROPEAN TERRACOTTA AND ITS RECEPTION by LAUREN R. CANNADY (Under the Direction of Alisa Luxenberg) ABSTRACT The value of terracotta as a sculptural medium has never been a monetary one; rather, its worth is found in its intrinsic malleability, allowing sculptors to work quickly in capturing an idea, likeness, or expression. While historically sculptors have chosen terracotta as a preferred medium for making models, or bozzetti , it has also long been associated with finished portrait busts. This thesis traces the rise in prominence of terracotta as a material of finished portrait sculpture in the late eighteenth century, culminating in the busts of the French academic sculptor Jean-Antoine Houdon. By examining contemporaneous trends in the fine arts as well as literature, it is possible to understand eighteenth-century terracotta portrait busts as reflections of the increased appreciation for the material qualities of terracotta and the creative and unique touch of the sculptor.

Origins of Modernism in French Romantic Sculpture

By FLORENCE QUIDEAU Dissertation Director: Professor Susan Sidlauskas This dissertation repositions the place of four Romantic artists within the current discussion of Modern sculpture. Today, Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux has displaced Auguste Rodin’s paramount place as the first Modern sculptor. The dynamism, suppleness, truthful movements, appropriate gestures, and accuracy of Carpeaux’s sculptures are considered the epitome of Modernist sculpture. This analysis argues that the portrait- busts and sculpted caricatures of Jean-Pierre Dantan (called Dantan-Jeune), Pierre-Jean David (called David d’Angers), Auguste Préault, and Honoré Daumier exemplified audacious artistic changes made thirty years before Carpeaux. These four artists showed a distinct rejection of formal portraiture and the values of artistic decorum by creating an

Portraits of Artists and the Social Commerce of Friendship in Eighteenth-Century France by Jessica Lynn Fripp A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History of Art) in the University of Michigan 2012 Doctoral Committee: Professor Susan L. Siegfried, Chair Professor Celeste A. Brusati Professor Dena Goodman Professor Patricia Simons © Jessica Lynn Fripp 2012 Acknowledgements Over the last few years I have received assistance from a number of institutions, colleagues, and friends, without whom this dissertation would not have been completed. Funding for this project came from several sources. The International Institute at the University of Michigan provided funding for both pre-dissertation and dissertation research in Paris. A Travel Fellowship from the Samuel H. Kress Foundation allowed me to conduct research in Rome and Sweden. A Bourse Chateaubriand provided funding for an extended stay in Paris and research outside the capital. I am especially grateful to Philippe Bordes, the former Director of Research at the Institut national d’histoire de l’art (INHA), for acting as my sponsor during that crucial year of initial research. This project benefitted greatly from conversations with him as well as his support. The staff and researchers at INHA provided a stimulating environment for dissertating. I thank everyone there for being so welcoming and supportive. A Rackham Predoctoral Fellowship and a Rackham Humanities Candidacy Fellowship provided support for final dissertation writing. I would like to thank the staffs of the Fine Arts Library at the University of Michigan, the Kungliga Bibliothek in Stockholm, the Bibliothèque nationale de France, the Centre de documentation and the Département des arts graphiques at the Musée du Louvre, and the library of the Institut national d’histoire de l’art in Paris.
