A Sèvres group of La Fee Urgele or Ce qui plait aux dames most likely modelled by Bachelier representing a lady seated on rockwork resisting the advances of a soldier  More »

A Sèvres group of La Fee Urgele or Ce qui plait aux dames most likely modelled by Bachelier representing a lady seated on rockwork resisting the advances of a soldier standing over her, he is wearing armour and with a tied sash over his shoulder, on a mound base with an upturned basket of flowers at the front, a plumed helmet and shield moulded with Medusa's head to the back. This group was first produced in 1767 under the direction of Bachelier, and formed a pair with la Fête au château. The group sold for a price of 144 livres, and was based on characters from the comic opera La Fée Urgèle, which was performed in front of the court at Fontainebleau for the first time in 1765. According to Émile Bourgeois, the biscuit group represents Mme Favart et Clairval performing La scène du baiser volée. Very good condition. XVIII° Period, Circa: 1767. Dim: W: 7,9 in - D: 5,9in - H: 8,3in. / Un groupe en biscuit de Sèvres représentant une femme assise résistant aux avances d'un soldat en armure et ayant déposé son casque à aigrette. A l'arrière, le bouclier du soldat est figuré avec une tête de Méduse. Cette oeuvre est basée sur l'opéra-comique la Fée Urgèle ou Ce qui plaît aux dames, écrit par Favart d'après un conte de Molière. Cet opéra-comique est mis en musique par Edigio-Romualdo Duni. Selon Émile Bourgeois, ce biscuit représente Mme Favart et Clairval jouant la scène du baiser volé, dans laquelle la fée assise, repousse vainement sire Robert, qui tente de l'embrasser. La Fée Urgèle est représentée pour la première fois devant la cour, à Fontainebleau, le 26 octobre 1765. Le premier tirage de ce biscuit apparaît en 1767, sous la direction de Bachelier qui a succédé à Etienne Maurice Falconet. Epoque XVIII°, Circa: 1767 Dim: L:20cm, P:15cm, H:21cm.   « Less
