  • Inventing the Modern World: TEXT PANELS
    Inventing the Modern World: TEXT PANELS Revival and (Re)invention At the 19th-century world’s fairs, many of the manufacturers’ stands were filled with objects laden with historical associations. A fascination with archaeology of the ancient world as well as popular interest in the art and literature of the Middle Ages and pre-Revolutionary France spawned imaginative revival styles, such as Renaissance, Gothic, and Rococo. Each style was imbued with cultural meaning and was often used in America to instill a European legitimacy on the young country’s artistic heritage. Objects in revival styles demonstrated the relevance of motifs and forms from the past on the decorative arts of the present. The succession of revivals also coincided with advancements in machine production, thus uniting the past with modern industry. Decorative arts were now more accessible and affordable, displaying the most current manufacturing methods, and consumers benefited from a greater variety of goods. Avant-garde processes of the time were often displayed through historical patterns and styles, such as Rococo swirls in cast-iron designs by Thomas Jeckyll and Thomas Warren and classically shaped electroplated metals by Elkington & Co. and Ferdinand Barbedienne Foundry. Revivalism became the platform for debuting inventive and progressive technologies that contributed to an increasingly modern world. Historicism: Imitation and Cunning Reproductions Artists who made objects in historicist styles for the world’s fairs sought to obtain the highest level of craftsmanship; many borrowed literally from the past and implemented or re-created ancient techniques. Some objects were so exact in their reproduction that they invited comparisons to originals.

We are both drawn to the styles of the 19th and 20th centuries and it gives us great pleasure therefore to present our first collection of decorative arts from these centuries, each carefully selected by us for rarity, quality and condition. We believe that objects of great quality enhance each other no matter what their age. Our interests lie particularly in the reinterpretation of exotic and classical styles in the art of the West, as amply demonstrated in our collection by Ferdinand Duvinage’s cachepot (no. 12) for Maison Giroux, a wheel-carved glass vase by Alphonse-Georges Reyen (no. 14) for Escalier de Cristal, a Jules-Auguste Habert-Dys enamelled and silver-mounted coffret (number 19), a pair of Christofle & Cie. Japonisme vases (no. 11), a Louis-Constant Sévin clock (no. 9) for Ferdinand Barbedienne and a Carlo Bugatti copper-mounted and inlaid table (no.18). Wonderfully rare examples that exude the opulence of the 19th century include the magnificent meuble à hauteur d’appui owned by Kaiser Friedrich III Hohenzollern with an exceptional micromosaic panel and marble top (no. 2), the monumental micromosaic panel by Licinio Campanili (no.
