French silverware brought together by Calouste Sarkis Gulbenkian is the most important of its time and one of the most significant sections of the Gulbenkian Museum’s collection. Amassed between 1900 and 1950, these pieces constitute a unique group due to their diversity and quality. The collection comprises over 150 works, including several world-class masterpieces that represent the collector’s taste.</p> <p style="font-weight: 400;">The catalogue is dedicated to a selection of silver works of different typologies, such as centrepieces, tureens, salt cellars, candelabras and candlesticks, made by renowned silversmiths such as François-Thomas Germain, Antoine-Sébastien Durant, Robert-Joseph Auguste and Martin-Guillaume Biennais. Despite this diversity, these works all share the characteristics that make this collection unique: quality and authenticity combined with original designs, technical expertise and distinguished provenances, with former owners including members of European aristocracy and the Russian imperial family. These works were mostly purchased in Paris, but there is also an important group of works from the Hermitage collection, acquired through negotiations made between Calouste Gulbenkian and the Soviet government between 1928 and 1930.</p> <p style="font-weight: 400;">Peter Fuhring, an internationally renowned expert and consultant to the Museum for several years, is the author of the publication which has approximately 400 pages and is edited in Portuguese, French and English. After an initial text about Calouste Gulbenkian’s passion for 18th-century French silverware, the most prominent pieces of the collection are presented in chronological order of acquisition and are accompanied by comprehensive descriptions and analyses, as well as detailed information on hallmarks, inscriptions, provenances and historical and bibliographical sources. An excellent photographic survey, carried out specifically for the purpose, illustrates the 43 catalogue entries.</p> <p style="font-weight: 400;">At the end of the publication, the reader can find a list of secondary silverware, an index of names and the group of archive documents and bibliography consulted.</p> </section> <div class="fcg-section-group"> <hr class="tw-my-6" /> <section

Amassed between 1900 and 1950, these pieces constitute a unique group due to their diversity and quality. The collection comprises over 150 works, including several world-class masterpieces that represent the collector\u2019s taste.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The catalogue is dedicated to a selection of silver works of different typologies, such as centrepieces, tureens, salt cellars, candelabras and candlesticks, made by renowned silversmiths such as Fran\u00e7ois-Thomas Germain, Antoine-S\u00e9bastien Durant, Robert-Joseph Auguste and Martin-Guillaume Biennais. Despite this diversity, these works all share the characteristics that make this collection unique: quality and authenticity combined with original designs, technical expertise and distinguished provenances, with former owners including members of European aristocracy and the Russian imperial family. These works were mostly purchased in Paris, but there is also an important group of works from the Hermitage collection, acquired through negotiations made between Calouste Gulbenkian and the Soviet government between 1928 and 1930.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Peter Fuhring, an internationally renowned expert and consultant to the Museum for several years, is the author of the publication which has approximately 400 pages and is edited in Portuguese, French and English. After an initial text about Calouste Gulbenkian\u2019s passion for 18th-century French silverware, the most prominent pieces of the collection are presented in chronological order of acquisition and are accompanied by comprehensive descriptions and analyses, as well as detailed information on hallmarks, inscriptions, provenances and historical and bibliographical sources. An excellent photographic survey, carried out specifically for the purpose, illustrates the 43 catalogue entries.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At the end of the publication, the reader can find a list of secondary silverware, an index of names and the group of archive documents and bibliography consulted.<\/p>\n","contributor":{"@type":"Organization","name":""},"isbn":"978-989-9119-05-5","inLanguage":"English","datePublished":"2023","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":""},"copyrightHolder":{"@type":"Organization","name":""},"size":"300mm x 230,5mm","numberOfPages":"408","image":"https:\/\/gulbenkian.pt\/museu\/ImageObject\/298490"}]} </script> <script type="text/javascript" id="app-js-extra"> /* <![CDATA[ */ var multisite_ajax = {"path":"\/museu\/wp-admin\/admin-ajax.php"}; /* ]]> */ </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="https://gulbenkian.pt/wp-content/themes/fcg-common/public/scripts/app.js?ver=c4d3e055a3c8937da841dda627cc150c58e1e41c" id="app-js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="https://gulbenkian.pt/wp-content/themes/fcg-common/public/scripts/analytics.js?ver=c4d3e055a3c8937da841dda627cc150c58e1e41c" id="analytics-js"></script> <script>(function(){function c(){var b=a.contentDocument||a.contentWindow.document;if(b){var d=b.createElement('script');d.innerHTML="window.__CF$cv$params={r:'8e7ff2932bec87b4',t:'MTczMjUxOTk3Ni4wMDAwMDA='};var a=document.createElement('script');a.nonce='';a.src='/cdn-cgi/challenge-platform/scripts/jsd/main.js';document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(a);";b.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(d)}}if(document.body){var a=document.createElement('iframe');a.height=1;a.width=1;a.style.position='absolute';a.style.top=0;a.style.left=0;a.style.border='none';a.style.visibility='hidden';document.body.appendChild(a);if('loading'!==document.readyState)c();else if(window.addEventListener)document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded',c);else{var e=document.onreadystatechange||function(){};document.onreadystatechange=function(b){e(b);'loading'!==document.readyState&&(document.onreadystatechange=e,c())}}}})();</script></body> </html>
