Diana The Huntress A 19th century French Enamel Tazza Tazza with scalloped edges in polychrome enamel, painted on copper with red background and gold highlights representing Diana the Huntress painted partly in grisaille; translucent and red counter-enamel. Paris, Théophile Soyer (1853-1940) circa 1880 Théophile Soyer (23 July 1853-20 February 1940) His father, Paul Soyer, gold medalist in 1878, created after the 1870 war the famous work-shop at 4 bis, rue Saint-Sauveur in Paris, which produced innumerable pieces, including some for jewellery, furniture and bronze. Théophile took classes with Yvon and Levasseur and made his debut at the 1870 Salon with an enamel copy of a work by Le Barbier aîné. He then exhibited regularly from 1875 to 1882. After his marriage in 1879 to Léa, née Dejoux, nicknamed Lucie, a pupil of Lamunière, he shared the management of the firm with her, just as he shared the gallery in her company at certain exhibitions. He won a silver medal at the Universal Exhibition of 1889, then a gold medal at the one in 1900. He was president of the Société des éclectiques, a humorous society founded in 1872, and vice-president of the Chambre de la céramique et du verre de l'Union. Founded in Paris during the Second Empire, the workshop directed by Paul Soyer (1832-1903) and then his son Théophile (1853-1940) produced various objects, paintings, mirrors, trays, vases, bonbonnières. Based on new sources of information, an article in l’Objet d’Art magazine, publications Faton, presents an update of the Soyer biographical elements and an analysis of their production marked by the neo-Renaissance and then Art Nouveau. A book of accounts allows us to observe the models of enamel "paintings", often from Meissonier’s work. The Soyers have greatly contributed to satisfying the taste of painted enamels that grew from the 1860s to the 1900 exhibition...
