PROPERTY OF AN ITALIAN NOBLE FAMILY

Provenance: Contessa Luisa Guicciardini Strozzi,
Thence by descent

Notes: This celebrated service was made at the command of Count Ginori for his friend the Marchesa Laura Isola Marana and delivered  in 1750. Painters involved in the production of the service clearly included the celebrated Karl Anreiter, and there is clear evidence of the influence of the Du Paquier style from Vienna.

The first part of the service, at least, must have been delivered by 30 October 1750, when the Marchesa mentioned it in a letter, having complained to the Count that she had not yet received it in letters of the 15th August and 22nd August.

However, the typology differs quite markedly between pieces of this service, and replacement pieces, or even a supplementary service, may have been made over the following few years. The addition of battle scenes to this piece is especially unusual.

Many pieces of the service are still in the possession of the Marana-Falconi family, but examples are also to be found as follows:

A coffee pot in the Museo Duca di Martina, Naples (inv.1987)

A tureen in the Museo di Villa Cagnola Gazzada (inv.326)

A dish in the Kunstgewerbe Museum, Cologne (inv.E3711)

Two large dishes in the Museum fur Angewandte Kunst, Vienna (inv. Ke6135 and Ke7905)

A dish in the Museum fur Kunsthandwerk, Frankfurt, (inv.6327)

Three dishes in the Hermitage Museum, St. Petersburg (inv.25605 and 25606, 25707) a plate in the Musee des Arts Decoratifs, Paris (inv. D.10824)

Four dishes from the service were sold by Sotheby’s Milan from the Questa Collection, 21 March 2005, lots 284 to 287; and another three, 21 December 2005, lots 342-344.
