Alla auktioner / Porslin & Keramik / Antique Micromosaic with the Ponte Lucano in a Gilded Silver Setting
Micromosaics with views of the most beautiful ruins of Rome and its surroundings are one of our hobbyhorses. How fine and detailed these small-format masterpieces often are! How they take us on a journey in our thoughts to the warm south. And how rich is the world of antiquity and classicism that we can discover through them. In this depiction, a bridge spans a not too wide river. A round building with battlements rises up in the middle. It appears to stand in the middle of the bridge. A second building can be seen on the right. This is the Ponte Lucano and the Plautier tomb on the Aniene near Tivoli. The Roman sky stretches beautifully over the scene in hazy blue. The mosaicist has also elegantly created the shadows on the bridge and along the round tomb. The scene on the banks of the Aniene has inspired numerous artists. Jakob Philipp Hackert, for example, captured the view from almost the same vantage point as the mosaicist. The painting from around 1780 is now in the Freie Deutsche Hochstift in Frankfurt / Main, see here. The Roman ruins, which were part of the usual sightseeing program of every traveller to Rome, were published in numerous plates and travelogues. As an example, we reproduce below a plate from Antonio Nibby: Viaggio Antiquario ne Contorni di Roma, Rome 1819, bound in after p. 112. This fine, perfectly preserved mosaic was created in Rome, probably in the 1860s. Unfortunately, it came to us without a setting. Our goldsmiths have therefore added a setting to the mosaic in the style of the time. It is made of gold-plated silver and turns the mosaic into a brooch. Would you like to join us on a trip to the south?
