Mearini Fine Art presents a Special Highlight
Albert Figdor (Wien 1843-1927) is considered one of the last private art collectors of ancient art. At the beginning of the 20th century, Albert Figdor's art collection was considered the largest private collection in Europe. It included paintings, miniatures, sculptures, ivory carvings, tapestries, clocks, gold and silversmith's work from altars to jewelry as well as relics and around 300 pieces of furniture of all kinds. As Figdor had a particular fondness for objects of domestic and craft use, chandeliers, stoves, metal vessels, tiles, faience, stoneware, glassware, games, toys, medals, textiles, tools and many other groups of objects were added, demonstrating the broad spectrum of their respective genres.
The actual size of the encyclopedic collection seems never to have been determined in terms of numbers; it was estimated at 5,000 to 6,000 artifacts. Many of these can now be found in important museums and private collections around the world. This legendary collection is published in five volumes. This sculpture is published in the 4th volume of the collection.

A propos

Mearini Fine Art est la nouvelle évolution de la galerie fondée en 1984 par Fabio Mearini. Ses filles, Margherita et Virginia, ont rejoint l’entreprise familiale depuis 2020. La galerie est située dans le centre historique de Pérouse, au 10 Corso Vannucci, artère principale de la ville, juste en face de la Galerie Nationale de l’Ombrie et à quelques pas de l’élégante Fontana Maggiore. Spécialisée dans le mobilier, les tableaux et les sculptures de la Haute Époque, la galerie accorde une attention particulière à l’étude et à la restauration des œuvres proposées, sélectionnées avec passion et provenant souvent d’importantes collections privées.
