32 A FLEMISH BAROQUE SILVER-GILT REPOUSSÉ CHARGER unknown maker, possibly middleburg, 17th century The oval platter with a banded scrolling foliate repousse border decorated with masques, and centering a depction of the Triumph of Amphitrite, queen of the Sea and consort of Poseidon. With indistinct marks for Middleburg and other marks, as well as Soviet export marks from the early 20th century.

L: 17 1/2, W: 12 in. Weight: 43.34 oz. t. note: The offered lot belongs to the relatively rare group of objects of this type which survive from the mid-seventeenth century. Silver production in this period centered around Antwerp, but the offered lot appears to bear the stamps for Middelburg, another well-known area of production of baroque silver. (For more information, see the article “Zilver Op Tafel - Vlaams Tafelsilver Van De 16e Tot de 18e Eeuw” published by the Openbaar Kunstbezit Vlaanderen.)

The late 19th century in Russia was a time of immense interest in Dutch Old Master paintings and Works of Art from this period. The interesting Soviet export marks dating from the early part of the 20th century indicate that the piece was in a Russian collection at the time of the revolution, and may have been amongst the large group of foreign works of art in the Soviet Union designated for sale in the west in the 1930’s.

85 A LARGE AND VERY FINE RUSSIAN SILVER NIELLO AND PARCEL-GILT TANKARD moscow, first quarter 18th century Of typical form, the lid with fruited finial and the handle with knobform thumb piece, the whole decorated with scrolling foliate motifs in niello work, the sides engraved with three Old Testament scenes of David and Bathsheba, Daniel in the Lion’s Den, and Joseph relaying his dream to Pharaoh, within cartouches and with related slavonic inscriptions, separated by classical trophies on a conforming shaped and stepped niello and parcel gilt base.

H: 10 1/2, Dia: 7 in. Weight: 49.6 oz. t. provenance: Lewis Cass (1782-1866) Mathilda Frances Cass Ledyard (1818-1898), his daughter Lewis Cass Ledyard (1851-1932), her son Thence by descent note: Niello (or “chern’” in Russian) was already known in Russia in the 10th century, and nielloed objects from Kiev, Ryazan, Chernigov, and Moscow were produced at a high level of quality. Byzantine jewelers that arrived in Moscow after the fall of Constantinople contributed to technical variations, and by the late 17th and early 18th century, Moscow was the undisputed center of niello production.

82 THREE RUSSIAN SILVER PUG-FORM SNUFF BOXES various makers and dates, moscow All of typical reclining pug form, the largest apparently unmarked, the medium with marks of unknown maker AR and Moscow, the smallest with marks of unknown maker ML and Moscow, circa 1790. (3).

L: 3 3/4 in. (largest). $4,000-6,000

In the late 17th and early 18th century, Western silver forms began to influence Russian work, and the charka, bratina, and shaped beakers of the earlier periods were replaced in popularity by the tankard (as in the offered lot), the snuffbox, and the patchbox. Western engravings began to filter into Russia in this period from the Netherlands, and it is from these that the creator of the offered lot no doubt drew inspiration for the baroque-style scenes which decorate the sides of the tankard.

83 A RUSSIAN SILVER NIELLO AND PARCEL-GILT SNUFFBOX unknown maker i*o, moscow, circa 1810 Engraved with allegorical hunting scenes and landscapes, the background chased in a basketweave pattern and gilded.

W: 3 1/2, D: 2, H: 5/8 in. $300-500

The three Old Testament scenes depicted on this tankard each feature inscriptions that complement the individual scenes of David, Beersheba and the Prophet Nafan, Daniel in the Lion’s Den, and Joseph telling his dream to Pharaoh. In the first scene, the inscription reads: “Had Beersheba not revealed [exposed] herself, then David would not have fallen into adultery and not sinned, however through the prophecy of Nathan, he was warned.” In the second, it reads: “On Daniel [who was] cast to the lions for eating / The counselors of King Darius became enraged at him because he was better than they were.” And in the last, it reads: “Joseph, though sold by his brothers and thrown into a pit, but as God Almighty seeing [his] good initiatives, rewarded him in time ...[illeg.]”

84 A RUSSIAN SILVER-GILT AND COVERED CUP IN THE BAROQUE REVIVAL TASTE unknown maker ee, moscow, 1848 The lobed and sectioned cup divided into eight segments with finely engraved landscapes and floral motifs contained within baroque architectural framework, the flowering finialed lid and scrolling foliate handle similarly engraved and chased.

H: 7 1/2 in. Weight: 13 oz. t. $3,000-4,000

Each of these scenes and inscriptions points to the role of the prophetic and faithful servant. It may be inferred that the offered lot was a presentation gift to a prescient and faithful supporter of a member of the highest aristocracy of Moscow. It is possible because of its impressive size and quality that the tankard was created in the Moscow Armoury workshops.

The offered lot left Russia long before the revolution, through France whence it was acquired by Lewis Cass, governor of the Michigan Territory (1813–1831), Secretary of War under President Andrew Jackson, and Secretary of State under President James Buchanan. During his public life, Cass also served as the American Ambassador to France at the Court of the Tuileries, and acquired this piece during his time there.

The tankard bears, in addition to mid-19th century import marks for France on the lip and flange, partial Cyrillic scratched inventory numbers “TF,” “IF 16,” and “74,” as well as other indistinct marks, including the faint outline of the mark for Moscow.

The full hallmarking of this piece was deliberately effaced by the 20th century engraver who added the inscription “L.C.L. and G.P.L., April Eleventh, 18781903, from L.C.” which was an inscription commemorating the 25th wedding anniversary of Cass’ grandchildren Lewis Cass and Gertrude Prince Ledyard, noting that the tankard was from the statesman, “LC.” $10,000-15,000
