Verified profile

Chalice made by fusion that reproduces in an extremely realistic way, thanks to a very skilful chiselling work, the head of a dog. This is an extraordinary work from the prestigious Sazikov atelier, founded in Moscow in 1793 by Pavel Fedorovich Sazikov, who was succeeded in 1830 by his son Ignatij who opened a branch in Petersburg in 1842. In 1846 the manufacture received the title of court supplier, which allowed it to place the imperial insignia with the double-headed eagle next to its name. In 1851 Ignatij Sazikov participated in the Universal Exhibition in London with nineteen objects, including various table sculptures, depicting historical and popular subjects or naturalistic motifs, which found no rivals in the surprising ability to render the most different in an absolutely realistic way materials, from the fur of animals to the bark of trees, rightly awarded with the award of the highest honor, the Council Medal. The particular type of this object is most likely inspired by the English stirrup cups, that is the glasses of the stirrup offered to knights about to leave for the hunt and traditionally conformed, in a sort of propitiatory rite, to the likeness of a fox, deer, hare or hound. The word "Fidelity" is engraved on the base in Cyrillic characters, followed by the date 1 January 1856.
