Pendule \u00e0 cercles tournants en marbres blanc, bleu turquin et bronze cisel\u00e9 et dor\u00e9<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Le mouvement rectangulaire a \u00e9t\u00e9 r\u00e9alis\u00e9 pour le vase dans lequel il s’ajuste, \u00e9chappement \u00e0 roue de rencontre, suspension \u00e0 fil du balancier, sonnerie au passage des heures et des demies avec roue de compte sur la platine arri\u00e8re. Les cercles tournants en bronze dor\u00e9 orn\u00e9s de losanges pour les heures et de rosaces pour les minutes. Ils pr\u00e9sentent des cartouches en \u00e9mail \u00e0 chiffres Romains pour les heures et Arabes pour les minutes. La main droite de l’amour forme l’index fixe.
Le remontage du mouvement s’effectue sur la droite et de la sonnerie sur la gauche, par deux ouvertures dans le marbre sur le c\u00f4t\u00e9 droit au niveau de la t\u00eate de lion. Le r\u00e9glage avance retard est positionn\u00e9 \u00e0 plat sur le dessus du mouvement, par un index circulaire gradu\u00e9, A\/R.
L’oscillation du balancier est verticale de l’avant vers l’arri\u00e8re du mouvement, ce qui est inhabituel.
Epoque Louis XVI, vers 1780

Historique<\/strong>
Au d\u00e9but de la seconde moiti\u00e9 du XVIIIe si\u00e8cle, nous assistons \u00e0 un renouvellement des sch\u00e9mas ornementaux qui pr\u00e9valaient jusqu’alors dans les arts d\u00e9coratifs parisiens. En effet, suite aux d\u00e9couvertes arch\u00e9ologiques de Pomp\u00e9i et d’Herculanum, grands amateurs, artistes et artisans, vont progressivement adopter les nouvelles r\u00e8gles du N\u00e9oclassicisme. Dans le domaine particulier de l’horlogerie, ce bouleversement va entra\u00eener la cr\u00e9ation de nouveaux mod\u00e8les de pendules dits \u00e0 cercles tournants, adapt\u00e9s plus \u00e9l\u00e9gamment que les cadrans circulaires \u00e0 leur nouvel \u00e9crin en forme de vases \u00e0 l’antique. Cette nouvelle vogue qui r\u00e9pondait aux attentes des grands collectionneurs atteindra son apog\u00e9e sous le r\u00e8gne de Louis XVI.<\/p>\n\n\n

La pendule que nous proposons fut r\u00e9alis\u00e9e dans ce contexte et se distingue de la quasi-totalit\u00e9 des autres exemplaires connus, r\u00e9alis\u00e9s en bronze dor\u00e9, par l’association d’un vase en marbre blanc et d’un d\u00e9cor de bronze cisel\u00e9 et dor\u00e9 dont la finesse d’ex\u00e9cution permet une attribution au ciseleur Pierre Gouthi\u00e8re. Enfin, parmi les rares autres exemplaires r\u00e9pertori\u00e9s, r\u00e9alis\u00e9s dans le m\u00eame esprit et employant ces deux m\u00eames mat\u00e9riaux, citons particuli\u00e8rement: un premier mod\u00e8le qui a \u00e9t\u00e9 vendu aux ench\u00e8res chez Christie’s, \u00e0 Londres, le 6 avril 1978, lot 14 : ainsi qu’un second, les c\u00f4t\u00e9s \u00e0 t\u00eates de b\u00e9lier et le couvercle du vase orn\u00e9 d’un putto sculpt\u00e9 dans la masse, qui se trouvait anciennement dans la c\u00e9l\u00e8bre collection du comte Greffulhe dispers\u00e9e \u00e0 Londres en 1937 (vente Sotheby’s, le 23 juillet 1937, lot 38).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Biographie<\/strong>
Pierre Gouthi\u00e8re (1732-1813)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pierre Gouthi\u00e8re est certainement le plus talentueux ciseleur parisien de son temps. Patronn\u00e9 par le duc d’Aumont, l’un des plus grands collectionneurs de la seconde moiti\u00e9 du XVIIIe si\u00e8cle, Gouthi\u00e8re obtient en 1767 son brevet de doreur ordinaire des Menus Plaisirs du Roi, administration royale qui g\u00e9rait notamment les commandes priv\u00e9es pass\u00e9es par le souverain aux artistes et aux artisans. Cette nomination lui permet d’acqu\u00e9rir une extraordinaire notori\u00e9t\u00e9 et de se composer la plus belle client\u00e8le de l’\u00e9poque uniquement compos\u00e9e d’amateurs d’objets rares et pr\u00e9cieux, parmi laquelle figuraient, outre la famille royale et le duc d’Aumont, de grands aristocrates tels que le marquis de Marigny, fr\u00e8re de la marquise de Pompadour, la princesse Kinsky, la comtesse Du Barry, ma\u00eetresse du Roi, la duchesse de Mazarin, le duc de Duras, la duchesse de Villeroy…ainsi que de grands financiers, particuli\u00e8rement Baudard de Saint-James, richissime tr\u00e9sorier g\u00e9n\u00e9ral de la marine, et le puissant banquier Th\u00e9lusson.
