EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning pair of two-handled vases created by the Imperial Porcelain Factory in St Petersburg in 1839. Standing at an impressive height of 95 cm, these porcelain masterpieces exude elegance and craftsmanship. Each vase features an ovoid shape resting on a circular foot, adorned with intricate details that highlight the skill of the Russian School artists from the 19th century. One vase depicts "The Singer" after Jacob Ochtervelt, while the other portrays "The Messenger" after Gerard ter Borch. The paintings are delicately inscribed and signed by A: Nesterov and N: Nesterov respectively, adding a personal touch to these exquisite works. The vases are further enhanced by ciseleshaped foliate frames surrounding the paintings, creating a harmonious composition against a glazed cobalt ground embellished with gilt scrolling foliage. The waisted flared cylindrical necks feature everted rims and are complemented by ornate gilt-bronze handles shaped like harpies busts. Resting on square ormolu bases with waisted gilt and blue banded socles, these vases truly exemplify opulence and grandeur. Marked inside their necks with overglaze factory marks, one vase also bears an additional gilt inscription reading N. 2.4.7. This photograph captures not only the beauty of these exceptional vases but also serves as a testament to the rich history and artistic legacy of Imperial Porcelain Factory in St Petersburg during this period.
