From October 26 – November 26, 2011, A La Vieille Russie in New York City will be presenting the exhibition, Mechanical Wonders: The Sandoz Collection, which includes the rarely seen Swan (1906), the Yusupov (1907) and the Peacock (1908) Eggs, a strutting golden peacock (1901), and a miniature piano with a music box (ca. 1905) all by Fabergé.

Maurice Yves Sandoz (1892-1958) over a period of 22 years acquired a collection of automatons created by late 18th and early 19th century goldsmiths and watchmakers, and Fabergé in the beginning of the 20th century. Videos in 2D and 3D depicting the movements of the automatons will accompany the exhibition as well as contemporary interpretations by the watchmaker/restorer Parmigiani Fleurier. The firm did the conservation and restoration work of the Yusupov Egg in 2007 and the Peacock Egg two years later. The multi-volume catalogue raisonné, Montres & Automates: La Collection Maurice Sandoz, will be presented for the first time along with an exhibition catalog by A La Vieille Russie.

In Memory of Konstantin Krijitski (1859-1911) – His 100th Anniversary
by Tatiana Cheboksarova and Galina Korneva
The Imperial Danish Palaces Easter Egg by Fabergé, given in 1890 by Emperor Alexander III to his wife Empress Maria Feodorovna, has been described carefully in several articles and books. Some initial inaccuracies in the interpretation of the folding ten-panel miniature surprise by Krijitski (also Kryzhitski, Крыжицкий), have been corrected. However, the life and creative work of the artist is still hardly known, not only abroad but not even to art historians in St. Petersburg, Russia – the city where Krijitski lived and worked. The artist also painted the miniatures for the 1893 Caucasus Easter Egg.

Krijitski graduated from the St. Petersburg Imperial Academy of Arts in 1884 as a rated artist of the first level with a small golden medal. Landscapes became his favorite painting genre. He taught drawing in the St. Petersburg Orphanage Institute which is named after Nicholas I and located in Gatchina. From 1881, the Gatchina Palace was also the main residence of Tsar Alexander III. It is known, Alexander III purchased some paintings by Krijitski toward the end of the 1880’s, and among them Forest Expanse, one of the most famous pictures of the artist. The Russian Tsar invited the artist to teach drawing to his youngest daughter Olga Alexandrovna (1882-1960). It is difficult to tell for sure, if the artist accompanied the Tsar’s family during their 1889 visit to Denmark. We suggest Krijitski was in Copenhagen and maybe thanks to that he was chosen to depict the Danish residences in the Fabergé Egg miniatures. Did the group of people on the miniature screen with the Kejserens Villa in Fredensborg (third panel from the left) remind him of Alexander III and members of his family?

Krijitski lived in St. Petersburg at the address shown in the photo above right. In 1909, the first meeting of the Artists Society, based on landscape painter Arkhip Kuindzi’s initiative, took place in his apartment. Krijitski was elected the chairman of the Society, and Tsar Nicholas II became the patron of the Society after the death of Kuindzi in 1910.

The 100th anniversary of Krijitski’s tragic death was celebrated in Russia this year. He committed suicide after being persecuted in the press. He was accused by the young artist Jacob Brovar of plagiarism in the picture Spring Is Coming. Possibly there were reasons for the accusations, but maybe both artists used the same postcard for the composition. Krijitski was buried at Smolensky Cemetery in St. Petersburg. According to Orthodox Church traditions, a self-murderer has no rights for a real funeral service, yet his grave is located very close to Smolensky the Mother of God Church. Grand Duchess Maria Pavlovna, the president of the Imperial Academy of Arts, took part in the funeral ceremony and in the newspaper, Novoye Vremya (New Time, 1911) were placed these words: “Unheard-of misfortune has happened: one of the most gifted artists, patriot of Russia K. Krijitski, killed himself. As sometimes a deer in tundra dies stung all over with cloud of midges, a poet of our nature became a victim of dirty newspaper harassment …” In 1912, the Society of Help to Poor Artists commemorating the memory of Krijitski was established under the patronage of Grand Duchess Olga Alexandrovna. She became the President of the Society and the meetings of the members took place in her palace in St. Petersburg, Chaikovsky Str., 46/48, formerly Sergievskaya Str.

Auctions
The auction of the Lily & Edmond J. Safra Collection (Sotheby’s New York October 18-21, 2011, lot 95) includes a pair of gilded silver two-light candelabra made by Fabergé’s Moscow workshops in 1896 with scratched inventory numbers (7726 and 7736). Svetlana Chestnykh, art expert of the Russian Ministry of Culture, shares her findings:

Fabergé objects produced in Moscow are usually not traceable in the archives of the Ministry of the Imperial Court. However, it appears likely the candelabra were produced for the wedding and coronation celebrations of Nicholas II and his wife Alexandra Feodorovna in November 1894 and May 1896, respectively. Very few candelabra appear in Fabergé invoices, yet there is one instance in which candelabra are mentioned in the extensive correspondence related to the wedding of Tsar Nicholas II. These documents, held in a file titled “On Expenditures Incurred on the Occasion of the Marriage of His Imperial Majesty Nicholas Alexandrovich”, include correspondence regarding commissions to Fabergé for silver decorative and serving pieces; an invoice from Fabergé lists the following items made for the coronation:

29 silver items in the Louis XVI style: a vase for flowers (tsvetochnitsa) costing 1,200 rubles; four vases for fruit costing 6,300 rubles; four candelabra costing 9,000 rubles; four dessert stands (etazherki) costing 7,500 rubles; eight champagne buckets costing 10,000 rubles; and, eight compotiers costing 5,000 rubles.
The Safra candelabra certainly seem to fit the description, since they are in the Neoclassical, or Louis XVI, style. But they are dated 1896, almost two years after the November 1894 wedding. The ceremonies were arranged with great speed due to the unexpected death of Alexander III and the two ceremonies merged into one in terms of planning and outfitting. The Fabergé invoice dated November 11, 1895, appears among correspondence with other artists and manufacturers attempting (and often failing) to meet the strict deadlines occasioned by death of Nicholas’ father. In summary, it appears the candelabra were among the items initially ordered for the wedding, but only produced in time for and used during the coronation, and therefore, dated 1896, the year of the coronation in Moscow. And made in the Moscow workshop, their inventory numbers would not be recorded on an invoice produced by the St. Petersburg office.

Additional archival research is needed to prove my supposition. I examined the profusely illustrated coronation albums and the silver inventory of the Imperial palaces (Baron A. Foelkersam, Inventaire de l’Argenterie conservée dans les garde-meubles des Palais Impériaux, St. Petersburg, 1907). Unfortunately, the coronation albums are illustrated only with group portraits and photos of the gifts given to the emperor rather than items ordered for his own use. Foelkersam’s inventory, although published in 1907, seems to contain none of the items ordered for the coronation. Finally, the French control marks confirm these pieces were identified by the Soviet authorities for sale after 1917, probably because they were of the best quality and highly saleable.

An assortment of smoking accessories popular during the Romanov era will be under the hammer. Smoking in Imperial Russia “began in the 17th century and was banned by Tsar Alexis, who decreed that first-time offenders should be whipped, exiled to Siberia, or have their noses slit; a second offence was punishable by execution.” (Romanov Heirlooms: The Lost Inheritance of Grand Duchess Maria Pavlovna, Sotheby’s London, November 30, 2009, 58)

Gusareva/v Moscow, and decorated with a silver satyr depicting Marsayas playing his aulos based on Greek mythology. Functional objects made with bricks from the Moscow brick factory with additions by the Fabergé firm have also appeared on the auction market decorated with snakes, lions, and leaves.

Left to right: Two cigarette cases, one for a gentleman with the logo of the G.H. Mumm & Cie., wine champagne producer and merchants (still in existence today with the same logo), and a lady’s cigarette case. Of particular interest is in the blue ceramic spill vase used to store splints from a tree to light a cigar or a cigarette from a fire. Matches were expensive and quite short as shown in the small matches case (lower right), so the use of shavings from a tree was a less expensive way to light a cigarette. The base of the nephrite match safe has a tiny ribbed striking surface.

Nigel K. Ross in his article “The Match Safes of Karl Fabergé” (Silver Magazine, January/February 2000, 22-25), states match safes or match boxes, as they were called in the London Sales Ledgers, did not represent a large part of the Fabergé inventory. From July 1913 to July 1914, 581 objects sold in London of which 107 were cigarette cases and only nine were match safes. Our thanks to Darin Bloomquist of Sotheby’s London for sharing Fabergé objects with the newsletter editors.

Our newsletter contributor, Willand Ringborg, suggests auction lots presented here are Russian objects which have never appeared in western auctions, and they will have archival documentation with provenance details. He concludes by saying, ”this is a new view into the Fabergé world”.

A fairly complete run of Sotheby’s and Christie’s magazines from 1980 to 2011 and scattered issues from the 1960-70’s are available from Jeffrey Eger. The monthly issues represent coverage of auctions worldwide. More recent issues contain background articles about single owner sales, or significant pieces of art written by in-house experts. Individual issues may be purchased.

Eggs
An article in the Sunday Telegraph (London), August 13, 2011, with the headline “The £20M Imperial Egg Hunt” has not yielded any results. The search is still on for the Third Imperial Egg presented to Maria Feodorovna in 1887, sold at auction in 1964 (but not identified as Fabergé) for $2,450 from the estate of Rena Clark (possibly 1890-1964).

General News
It is with a sad heart we note the passing of Anne Odom, curator emeritus at Hillwood Estate, Museum and Gardens, Washington, DC, who for many years actively researched and contributed through her publications and lectures to our knowledge of Fabergé and the Russian decorative arts. She will be missed!
Anne Odom (1935-2011)
Anne Odom (1935-2011)
A recent edition of The Bully News (4/11), a hardcopy newsletter for bulldogs fanciers, illustrated the breed in carvings by Fabergé, Cartier, and a variety of unidentified makers. The editor, Dr. Hannes Pramer, encountered the same quandary of identifying carved hardstone animals as do dealers, museum curators and Fabergé enthusiasts, since most of the animals are not marked. Animals with gold legs or collars may be marked, yet so are fakes or Fauxbergés, a term coined by Géza von Habsburg.

The suggestion has been made that Fabergé carvings fall into two types – naturalistic studies and animals as cartoon. The late A. Kenneth Snowman in his publications pointed out if the animal looks as if it is about to come alive with its typical movements, such as a cat pouncing on a mouse, it is genuine Fabergé.

Dr. Géza von Habsburg in the publication, Fabergé Revealed (2011, 347-356), presents a variety of animals with their possible origins. In his curatorial work with the Pratt Collection, Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, he attributed 16 out of 37 animals to Fabergé based on original fitted cases, their hallmarks, or their quality, while eleven are by or probably from the firm of Cartier which between 1904 and 1911 supplied the same Russian clientele as Fabergé. An easy solution for the identification of hardstone animal carvings by Fabergé has so far escaped the experts, and beauty continues to be in the eyes of the beholder.

A reader recognized the similarity between a clock in the Collection of the Duke of Edinburgh (de Guitaut, Royal Fabergé, 2011, 135, 142) and a frame in the Pratt Collection (von Habsburg, Fabergé Revealed, 2011, 224-5). Our research associate Joanna Wrangham, dates the original photograph of Grand Duchess Tatiana to September 1911 – September 1912 when the Imperial family visited Livadia.

The Story of a 1907 Jetton and the Imperial Yacht Standart
by Frida Packalén, Finland
Inspired by Ulla Tillander-Godenhielm to delve a bit deeper into the history of a small golden object in my possession and the Fabergé Research Newsletter Winter 10-11 article, “Fabergé Jetton Puzzle” by Korneva and Cheboksarova, I am sharing a personal story never told before. It is about a man who died in Finland 53 years ago and a jetton living its silent life among other objects of his property. The man happened to be my godfather and step-grandfather. Even if it is not Fabergé, the jetton can perhaps give one more illustration of the events in the Rilax Bay, Finland, in 1907.

A few lines about my godfather’s background: Sidney Wilhelm Heliodor Landberg was born in 1877 in Stockholm, Sweden, and died in Helsinki, Finland, in 1958. He was only 13 when he started his marine career in Revel, Estonia, as a seaman and steward on brigs and barks. His uncle, general manager of the Russische-Baltische Bergungs-Verein in Revel (cited as The Revel Rescue Society by Korneva-Cheboksarova) in 1896 offered him work in his society. Young Sidney had already experienced life on the oceans by crossing the Atlantic Ocean a dozen of times and rounding the Cape of Good Hope as well. He passed his first mate and captain examination in Baltischport (Estonia) and worked for his uncle’s company until World War I, covering the Baltic Sea and the Gulf of Finland.

In September 1907 when the Imperial Yacht Standart during its summer cruise in the Finnish archipelago ran aground in the Rilax Bay Sidney Landberg happened to be stationed in Hanko, not far from the scene of the accident. He was dispatched by his company, the Russische-Baltische Bergungs-Verein, to rescue the Imperial Yacht. Finnish salvage ships had also been contacted and worked together with the Revel company ships to rescue the Standart. Of special interest is the fact that the honor and marks of distinction for rescuing the Imperial Yacht were conferred only on the representatives of Russische-Baltische Bergungs-Verein in Revel.

In a retrospective log-book or curriculum, written probably about 1920, Landberg says he sailed for the Standart in the morning of September 4th (o.s.), and he continues: “Worked for about three weeks together with s/s Meteor and Karin. Then convoyed s/s Standart to Kronstadt. The Imperial family [was] on board all the time during the salvage work. Received the order of Saint Stanislas third class and a golden watch. Salvage pay 125.000 roubles.”

During his almost 50 years of service as a captain of salvage ships Sidney Landberg was the recipient of several marks of distinction and gifts, both Russian and Finnish. One of those is the small golden jetton.

It measures about 3 x 2.2 cm, and weighs about 20 grams. On the front of the jetton one can see the Imperial double eagle in relief, under it – in relief as well – the name Standart in capital Cyrillic letters. The back of the jetton shows an anchor at the top, leaning slightly to the left. The written text engraved under it in Cyrillic letters says: To Sidney Sidneyson Landberg 19 12/9 07. The open locket shows two ovals, the right one is empty and shows only the two clamps fastening the anchor at the back; the left oval shows a very small branch of what looks like withered forget-me-nots lying on a bed of old golden-colored silk. Both ovals are fitted with thin transparent material. No hallmarks have been found on the jetton itself, but a broken snap-hook (which most probably belonged to the jetton) has Russian hallmarks on it.

More than 50 years after my godfather’s death there are only a couple of individuals who can remember him. A historical account of the Finnish Salvage Company Neptun 1898-1948, where he served from 1921 until he retired on a pension after World War II, gives some information about him and his ship s/s Assistans. I remember him as a most kind and generous person, always helpful to those in need. So it happened, for instance, when his sister in Stockholm in the early 1950’s was in financial difficulty, he authorized her to sell all his awards and watches (which had been transferred to Sweden probably because of the delicate relations between Finland and USSR during and after World War II).

The small golden jetton with forget-me-nots in it, a few lines in a captain’s retrospective log-book and some documents referring to his awards is what remains – but they remind us of Sidney Landberg’s work as one of those who participated in the efforts to rescue the Imperial Yacht Standart when she went aground in the Finnish archipelago in 1907.

Searching for Fabergé
Fan with Fabergé Montures
by Christel McCanless
During a recent visit with Mrs. Hélène Alexander, founder and director of the Fan Museum in Greenwich (London) I learned about fan guards and sticks (montures) from the House of Fabergé. Hawksbill sea turtles are harvested for their shells used in decorations, eye glasses, and jewelry, and the style is known in the fashion world as ‘tortoiseshell’. The blond part of the turtle shell is the most expensive and only the light flakes were used in fan montures. Mrs. Alexander with a twinkle in her eye called the real tortoiseshell nature’s plastic – in most parts of the world the hawksbill turtle can no longer be hunted. Readers with illustrations of Fabergé montures are asked to contact Christel McCanless for an ongoing fan study.
