Retorna a Paris em 1702, sendo aceito na Academia Real de Pintura e Escultura logo em seguida. Torna-se professor dessa instituição em 1706. Destacam-se desse período a cena bíblica do paralítico do templo e o retrato do rei francês Luís XV, de 1715, mantido na Galeria de Dresden (Duissieux, 1876).

Tanto Augusto II, quanto seu filho, admiravam o trabalho de Silvestre sobremaneira, concedendo-lhe as maiores honras disponíveis para o artista. Foi escolhido pintor oficial da corte, depois diretor da Academia de Dresden, em 1727. O príncipe Frederico, agora Augusto III da Polônia, concede-lhe um título nobiliárquico em 1741, fazendo o mesmo com 1 Entre os séculos XVI e XVIII, a Polônia e a Lituânia formavam uma monarquia dual e eletiva, chamada de Comunidade Polaco-Lituana.

  • Porcelain Acquisitions Through Private Networks for Augustus the Strong, Heidelberg: Arthistoricum.Net, 2020
    1. Introduction Ever since the discovery of the maritime routes to America by Christopher​ Columbus in 1492, and to India by Vasco da Gama in 1498, the global expansion of trade and trade routes influenced European culture in an unprecedented man- ner. Knowledge about geography and foreign nations expanded, and the intro- duction of new consumables such as tea and chocolate transformed European table culture. Silk and fine cottons from China and India, once brought to the West via the Silk Roads, now arrived in large quantities at the European courts. The European global expansion had its downsides, of course. The conquest of the Americas led to the expulsion, exploitation and eradication of its indigenous peoples. The trade in sugar cane products became the linchpin of colonial rule on the Caribbean islands. After the extinction of almost the entire native pop- ulation, large areas became available for cultivation. Millions of Africans were deported and enslaved over the course of 400 years to work on the plantations under inhuman conditions. One trade item, which also found its way to Europe with the growing maritime traffic, was Chinese porcelain. Still a mysterious substance in the 16th century, vessels made from the luxurious-looking material quickly gained wide popularity with the intensification of the export trade by the Dutch. Millions of East Asian porcelains reached Europe in the 17th and 18th centuries, partly through the professional East Asia trading companies and partly through private enterprise. Chinese and – later – Japanese porcelain soon became deeply anchored in European culture, where it was used for its intended purpose as tableware, as gifts exchanged between royal courts, or as decorative and useful items in the households of even the general public.

Skvortcova Saint Petersburg State University, 7–9, Universitetskaya nab., St. Petersburg, 199034, Russian Federation For citation: Skvortcova, Ekaterina. “Stephano Torelli’s ‘Coronation Portrait of Catherine II’: Crowns as a Visual Formula of the Lands of the Russian Empire”. Vestnik of Saint Petersburg University. Arts 10, no. 2 (2020): 274–299. https://doi.org/10.21638/spbu15.2020.206 The “Coronation portrait of Catherine II” by Stephano Torelli introduces a new type of ico- nography of the Russian Empress in which she appears as a bearer of multiple (i. e. four) crowns. Whereas originally such a portrait type in European art served as a representation of the several titles of the ruler and correspondent lands joined in a personal union, it became a representation of the titles of Catherine II as the Russian Empress and tsarina of the conquered tsarstva of Kazan, Astrakhan and Siberia. The theme of titles and lands of the Empire had al- ready developed in 18th-century Russia in other forms (allegorical figures, coats-of-arms) and visual media (decorative painting and sculpture). Circa 10 examples collected here for the first time are set side by side with their European counterparts. Three types of representations of native and conquered territories emerged in which the very choice of particular titles and the place of their symbolic representation in composition accentuated different aspects in the con- cept of the Russian Empire.

  • Lagnasco / Wallenstein
    LAGNASCO / WAllENSTEIN SIX TEA BOWLS AND SAUCERS FROM THE EARLIEst ARMORIAL SERVICE KNOWN TO HAVE BEEN MANUFACTURED AT MEISSEN BÖttGER PORCELAIN C. 1720 These six Böttger porcelain tea bowls and saucers came from a coffee and tea service that was one of the earliest Meissen armorial services known to us today. The alliance coat of arms and Funcke colours enable us to date it with confidence to around 1720. The arms are those of Pietro Roberto Taparelli, Conte di Lagnasco (1659–1732) and his (second) wife Countess Maria Josepha Antonia Carolina Waldstein or Wallenstein (1687–1735), the widowed Countess Thun-Hohenstein. We are extremely grateful to Dr Cristina Maritano, curator of the Museo Civico Palazzo Madama in Turin, for drawing our attention to the Taparelli family and providing information on its background; and to Dr Johanna Lessmann for putting us in contact with Dr Maritano. The service can be assumed to have been a wedding gift from Augustus the Strong to his gen- eral and minister Count Lagnasco, who was close to the King and rendered him loyal service in his extensive purchases of East Asian porcelain from the Netherlands. Count Lagnasco married Countess Waldstein on 7 February 1721 in Vienna. The Taparelli family continued to enjoy close relations with the Saxon court even after Count Lagnasco’s death in 1732. From that year onwards his nep- hew Carlo Francesco Taparelli, Conte di Lagnasco, was royal Saxon-Polish envoy to the Holy See in Rome; around 1735 Augustus III made him a gift of a 26-piece coffee, tea and chocolate service decorated with the Taparelli arms, which is a prize example of the Italian armorial services of the later period.
