Hope Thomas, "Anastasius, or memoirs of a Greek; written at the close of the eighteenth century", Paris, Baundrys foreign library, 1831. Complete in 2 volumes. Including a folding map of the travels of Anastasius. Thomas Hope, was a Dutch and British merchant banker, author, philosopher and art collector, best known for his novel "Anastasius" a work which many experts considered a rival to the writings of Lord Byron. Hopes "Anastasius" novel was first published in 1819 in London, and immediately received the publics enthusiasm, with re-editions and translations of this work appearing the following years. Hopes descriptions revealed the lives of the inhabitants of the Ottoman Empire and provided astonishing glimpses of the wars fought among the Turks, Russians and Wahabees. It also described many previously unknown details of Islamic culture: music, language, cuisine, religion, laws and literature. Marbled paper boards, cloth spine.

PENDULE À LA FIGURE DISIS Daprès un dessin de Thomas HOPE (1769-1831)
Est: €70,000 - €80,000
PENDULE À LA FIGURE DISIS Daprès un dessin de Thomas HOPE (1769-1831) Attribué à Antoine-André RAVRIO (Paris, 1759-1814) Et par MESNIL (Maître horloger actif à Paris sous lEmpire) Paris, époque Empire, vers 1805-1810 Matériaux Marbre rosso antico, bronzes dorés et patinés, émail et métal Signé MESNIL A PARIS H. 53,5 cm, L. 28,3 cm, P. 20 cm Provenance Ancienne collection Owston, Sydney, Australie Collection privée, France Cette pendule fut reproduite à deux reprises dans le célèbre recueil de Thomas Hope intitulé Household Furniture and Interior Decoration, publié à Londres en 1807, visible de profil sur une console à droite de la Aurora Room illustrée planche VII , et de face, sur une console seule avec trois vases, formant le dessin n° 3 de la planche XIII. Elle est décrite par Hope dans la notice de cette dernière planche : « [] On the table stands a clock, carried by a figure of Isis, or the moon, adorned with her crescent » (« Sur la console est une pendule, portée par une figure dIsis, ou la lune, ornée de son croissant »). Nettement visible sur ce dessin, elle apparaît identique à la pendule présentée ici, ornée au centre de la figure en pied dIsis, coiffée dun némès, la jambe gauche en avant, et tenant dans ses bras un cadran circulaire sur lequel repose un drapé. Isis est placée dans une niche concave flanquée de deux pilastres de section carrée richement ornés de hiéroglyphes, sarrêtant à hauteur des hanches de la déesse, et ponctués chacun dun vase orné de la tête du taureau Apis, remplacés par des lions assis sur notre modèle. Lensemble repose sur un socle en demi-lune. Le disque lunaire couronnant la tête dIsis, bien visible sur le dessin de Hope, napparaît en revanche sur aucune des pendules répertoriées de ce modèle. Selon la description de Hope de la Aurora Room illustrée planche VII, le sujet de cette pendule, la déesse mère Isis étant associée au disque solaire et lunaire, sintègre parfaitement dans la thématique générale du décor de la pièce, orchestrée autour du Jour et de la Nuit, symbolisés ici par le groupe sculpté de lAurore et Céphale de Flaxman, placé au centre de la composition. Conçu par Hope, le modèle de cette pendule trouve un écho direct dans la planche 10 du recueil intitulé Diverse maniere dadornare i cammini ed ogni altra parte degli edifizi (Différentes manières dorner les cheminées []), publié en 1769 par Giambattista Piranesi (1720-1778) : on y retrouve en effet linspiration de la figure dIsis dans les personnages néophores en pied formant les chambranles de la cheminée, ainsi que les mêmes vases à têtes du taureau Apis, placés à la base des deux obélisques à hiéroglyphes flanquant le chambranle de cette même cheminée . La pendule à la figure dIsis connut un très grand succès sous le Consulat et lEmpire. A Paris, elle fut produite par le bronzier Antoine-André Ravrio (Paris, 1759-1814). Une pendule similaire à la nôtre, conservée dans une collection particulière et également dotée dun mouvement signé par lhorloger Mesnil, porte linscription « Ravrio/ Bronzier à Paris / Mesnil H.er ». Le modèle fut visiblement développé avec variantes par le bronzier : avec ou sans pilastre; Isis apparaissant avec une poitrine soit dénudée, à limage de notre pendule, soit voilée, à limage dune pendule dotée dun cadran signé « Lépine, 12 place des Victoires, n° 4458 », également conservée dans une collection particulière (Vente Paris, Drouot, 26 avril 1991, lot 149). Les sommets des pilastres reçurent également au gré des variantes, différents types dornements : lions assis, pyramides tronquées ou encore vases à têtes du taureau Apis. « Antoine André Ravrio naquit à Paris en 1759. Son père, habile fondeur, était généralement estimé par sa droiture et ses talents ; et sa mère, appartenait à la famille Riesener, avantageusement connue dans les arts industriels et li
