Description

An Italian Empire pendulum clock Ormolu clock on a white marble base with a white enamel dial and Arabic numerals. The originally symmetrical hands in the hubs of the chariot wheels. Designed as a finely chased, androgynous figure of Diana in a chariot pulled by two horses, with pierced relief appliques to four faces. The movement in need of repair, one relief applique loose, one of the attributes of Diana lost, the reins broken. H 42, W 47, D 17 cm. Fonderia Napoleonica Eugenia / Fonderia Manfredini, after 1806. The Fonderia Napoleonica Eugenia was founded in Milan in 1806 by the brothers Francesco, Luigi and Antonio Manfredini, who came from Bologna. The foundry was named after the Italian viceroy Eugène de Beauharnais. Francesco, the eldest brother, was the king's court watchmaker and jeweller, Luigi was a sculptor and medal caster. Many of the magnificent clocks from the foundry can still be found in Milanese museums today. Among them is the famous clock of the Muse Polymnia, now in the Museo del Novecento in Milan. Another famous clock depicts the hunt of the goddess Diana, dated between 1808 and 1814 at the latest. The Fondazione Querini Stampalia in Venice and Palazzo Isimbardi in Milan also own clocks from the Fonderia Manfredini. The proximity to contemporary French productions such as those of Claude Galle (1759 - 1815) and Pierre-Philippe Thomire (1751 - 1843) is clearly evident in all the bronzes. Franceso Manfredini must have studied the designs of these workshops during his time in Paris. The foundry was closed in 1853 after the death of the three brothers. Literature Cf. The signed chariot pendulum clock in theFondazione Querini Stampalia (in: Colle/Griseri/Valeriani, Bronzi Decorativi in Italia, Milan 2001, p. 288 f.) Cf. also a similar French model in: Tardy, La Pendule Française. 2ème partie. Du Louis XVI à nos jours, Paris, 1969, p. 377. Pendule char Empire Feuervergoldete Bronze, weißer Marmor, weiße Emailziffernringe mit manganfarbenen arabischen Zahlen. Ehemals synchronisierte Zeiger in den Radnaben beider Wagen. Plastische, fein ziselierte Darstellung einer androgynen Daina-Darstellung auf einem von zwei Pferden gezogenen Streitwagen. Auf vier Seiten mit durchbrochenen Reliefapplikationen, rechteckige Felder mit Arabeskenranken, verziertes Postament. Uhrwerk reparaturbedürftig, eine Reliefapplikation lose, ein Attribut der Diana verloren, Zügel gebrochen. H 42, B 47, T 17 cm. Fonderia Napoleonica Eugenia / Fonderia Manfredini, nach 1806. Die Fonderia Napoleonica Eugenia wurde 1806 in Mailand von den aus Bologna stammenden Brüdern Francesco, Luigi und Antonio Manfredini gegründet. Namensgeber der Gießerei war der italienische Vizekönig Eugène de Beauharnais. Francesco, der Älteste, war Hofuhrmacher des Königs und Juwelier, Luigi war Bildhauer und Medailleur. Zahlreiche der prachtvollen Uhren aus der Gießerei befinden sich heute noch in den Mailänder Museen. Darunter ist die berühmte Uhr der Muse Polymnia, heute im Museo del Novecento in Mailand. Eine weitere bekannte Uhr zeigt die Jagd der Göttin Diana, datiert zwischen 1808 und spätestens 1814. Auch die Fondazione Querini Stampalia in Venedig und der Palazzo Isimbardi in Mailand besitzen Uhren aus der Fonderia Manfredini. Bei allen Bronzen ist die Nähe zu den zeitgenössischen französischen Produktionen wie die von Claude Galle (1759 - 1815) und Pierre-Philippe Thomire (1751 - 1843) deutlich erkennbar. Franceso Manfredini hat in seiner Pariser Zeit mit großer Sicherheit diese Werkstätten kennengelernt. Nach dem Tod der drei Brüder wurde die Gießerei 1853 geschlossen. Literatur Vgl. die signierte Streitwagenpendule in der Fondazione Querini Stampalia (bei Colle/Griseri/Valeriani, Bronzi Decorativi in Italia, Mailand 2001, S. 288 f.) Für ein ähnliches französisches Modell s.Tardy, La Pendule Française. 2ème partie. Du Louis XVI à nos jours, Paris, 1969, S. 377.
