Rare Neo-Pompeian Console and Its Mirror, Probably Italy, circa 1890
About the Item
Charming painted wood neo-Pompeian console and its mirror. The console, resting on four feet, is decorated with olive branches, two-tone triangle friezes and frieze of flowers on the belt, on a red background. The console is surmounted by a large matching mirror adorned with geometrical patterns, insects on the angles and stylized flowers.
Measures: Total height 264 cm (103.9 in.) - Console = Height 98 cm (38.5 in.); Width 173 cm (68.1 in.); Depth 50.5 cm (19,8 in.) / Mirror = Height 166 cm (65.3 in.) ; Width 140 cm (55.1 in.) ; Depth 17 cm (6.7 in.)
This console is probably the work of an artist inspired by what he saw during a Grand Tour. It was at first a long educational trip in Europe made mainly by young men from the highest social classes of European society. This practice emerged around the middle of the 16th century and reached its peak in the 18th century. The main destinations were Italy, France, the Netherlands, Germany and Switzerland. Young people would buy art and antiques, and visit ancient Roman ruins as well the recently discovered Herculanum and Pompeii. In the 18th and 19th centuries, the Grand Tour was made by artists, art amateurs, collectors and writers.

- Louis XVI Style Cabinet and its Companion Vitrine by F.Linke, France, Circa 1890By François LinkeLocated in PARIS, FRExceptional Louis XVI style cabinet and its companion vitrine beautifully mounted with chiseled and gilded bronze. They are surmounted by a rectangular top with an egg-and-dart molded edge, above a frieze centered by a laurel-festooned Bacchic mask and scrolling acanthus. The vitrine and the cabinet open by one door ; the paneled door of the cabinet centered by a ribbon-suspended lyre and foliate pendant. Both have the angles adorned with tapering female caryatids, above a guilloche. They rest on tapering fluted quiver-form legs joined by a pierced stretcher, surmounted by a flowery urn, and ending on toupie feet. Related work : Cabinet and vitrine listed under index 684 of Linke’s photographic archives (see photo attached). View of a room of the private collector Elias Meyer’s Mansion, in 16 Grosvenor Square, London, taken in 1909 and reproduced and commented in François Linke (1855-1946), The Belle Epoque of French Furnitures, Ch. Payne, p.247) showing the cabinet and the showcase in situ. (see photo attached). View of the cabinet in situ in the Queen’s bedroom in the Palace Ras al-Tin, in Alexandria, after being bought by King of Egypt Fouad on March 1927. Reproduced and commented in François Linke (1855-1946), The Belle Epoque of French Furnitures, Ch. Payne, p.278. (see photo attached). François Linke, born in 1855 in Bohemia (Czechoslovakia), worked as a cabinet-maker in Paris from about 1882 until his death in 1946. In 1900, at the apex of his career, he opened a new shop at the famous Parisian place Vendôme. He specialized in Louis XV and Louis XVI style furniture: all pieces were beautifully mounted with gilt-bronze ornaments, and he received numerous commissions. Later Linke decided to collaborate with the well-known sculptor Léon Messagé and integrated new lines and shapes announcing the “Art Nouveau” style. His great success is definitely the 1900 Universal Exhibition where he was awarded the gold medal for his extraordinary kingwood desk, designed by Messagé. At this occasion, the “Revue artistique et industrielle” commented that “Linke’s stand...Category
