He was commissioned to paint this work in 1848 to decorate the walls of the Salle des Bijoux in the Palais du Louvre. While the taste for \u2018history\u2019 was at its peak, he painted an inventory of the treasures of the Renaissance here: the female figure with a curvilinear silhouette, coiffed in the 16<sup>th<\/sup> century style, points to a sculpted cartouche with Fontainebleau-style accents on which are inscribed the names of Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, Palissy and Primaticcio. If the Italian painters are honoured in this painting through Titian\u2019s Francis I<sup> <\/sup>in the medallion and the angels inspired by Raphael, France is present through the ceramics. At the feet of the figure, an enamelled cup in grisaille and gold recalls the creations of L\u00e9onard Limosin and the taste for this type of object from the 1820s onwards. On the right, the richly decorated ewer in the foreground evokes the 17th-century Italianate earthenware of Nevers and, in particular, a monumental pair of dragon-handled ewers held in the Louvre Museum.<sup><\/sup> Incidentally, it is on the belly of this ewer that the painter chose to place his signature in 1853.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-7dd9da16 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"7dd9da16\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-3ea23ec2\" data-id=\"3ea23ec2\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6f6a3c7f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6f6a3c7f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Continuing to Explore<\/strong><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-64c200e5 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"64c200e5\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-8701bb0\" data-id=\"8701bb0\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-46389b54 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-align-right elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"46389b54\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-xs\" href=\"\/?page_id=9366\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Other paintings<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-5213e9ad\" data-id=\"5213e9ad\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-432c3b6f elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"432c3b6f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"\/?page_id=6157\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">All collections<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Charles Landelle (1821-1908) 1853\u00a0 H. 264 cm;L. 198 cm Oil on canvas Ch\u00e2teau de Fontainebleau, INV 5614 A history painter, friend of G\u00e9rard de Nerval and Th\u00e9ophile Gautier and a great lover of the Italian masters that he copied in the Louvre, Landelle executed numerous official commissions under the July Monarchy and then the Second [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":10011,"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories_collection":[326],"class_list":["post-13227","collection","type-collection","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","categories_collection-paintings"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.1.1 -
