1863 chromolithographed print: Mosaic Table Top & Its Pedestal. by Salviati of Venice. (with carving of a slave woman!) This is a plate from a large, lavishly illustrated volume published in London in 1863, Masterpieces of Industrial Art & Sculpture, at the International Exhibition, 1862. The sheet measures 11.5 x 16.5 inches in size, and is blank on the reverse side. It has two small age spots in its blank margins, but is still in beautiful condition, with the colors bright and sharp, and showing great detail. Of unusual interest is that the pedestal shown in the plate features a carving of a bare-breasted black woman slave who is dressed with a flowing and ornately lovely skirt. Above the image it is labelled in small print ITALY PLATE 280. The credit line below the image reads: London. Chromolithographed & Published by Day & Son, Lithographers to the Queen. J.B. Waring, direx. The print will be accompanied by a separate full sheet of text related to the lithograph, under the title, A MOSAIC TABLE AND STAND. The page offers an extensive descriptive text on the illustrated piece, saying in part: . . . . rich and elaborate mosaic table, 3 feet 4 inches in diameter, which formed one of the most striking features of his collection. Dr. Antonio Salviati states that it is entirely a mosaic work, i.e., an intaglio, consisting of enamels of different colours, aventurine, mother-of-pearl, gold enamels, and chalcedony, inlaid to the thickness of about half an inch . . . these materials require, far more than either marbles or pietre dure, extraordinary care and delicacy in the workmanship. The difficulties of the work were greatly enhanced in this table through intricate patterns described on it; indeed, so elaborate and varied is the design, as well as so minute in some portions, that it is marvellous how it could have been successfully produced without a flaw of any kind. . . . The pedestal of this table, which we have given separately, is composed of wood, painted and gilt; it represents a black slave and her children: bent on one knee, she supports the table on a cushion, which takes away the effect of any painful effort. She holds a chalcedony-agate vase in her hand: others are held by the children, or are placed on the ground, which is covered with a rich Oriental carpet . . . . The wood-carving of the pedestal is the work of Antonio Toso, and the painting and gilding, of which there is a great deal, excellently finished, is done by Pietro Magri. We believe the table was valued at 1,000 sterling. . . . Etc. ************** [gsp12307] _gsrx_vers_1680 (GS 9.8.3 (1680))
