A LIMOGES LOW RELIEF PARCEL-GILT POLYCHROME ENAMEL PLAQUE DEPICTING THE VIRGIN, WORKSHOP OF LÉONARD LIMOSIN OR PIERRE COURTEYS, THIRD QUARTER 16th CENTURY


The present plaque is slightly in relief and can be compared to another with same dimensions from the Rothschild collection representing Saint John in a very similar position (see fig. 1; sale Christie’s, New York, Rothschild Masterpieces: The Kunstkammer, 12 October 2023, lot 181), suggesting that they are from the same Crucifixion triptych, which would have been dismantled at an unknown date.

This elegant enamel displays similarities with known works by Limosin (1505-1577) and Courteys (1520-1602). Notably, we can cite two sets of plaques depicting full length apostles attributed to Léonard Limosin in the Louvre (inv. no. N1245 and 6) and in the Musée des Beaux-Arts, Chartres (inv. no. D50-2-1 to 12). Parallels can also be drawn between the depiction of our clouds and those on the plaques of the allegories of Charles IX as Mars and Catherine de Medici as Juno in the Getty Museum, Los Angeles (inv. no. 86.SE.536), as well as the treatment of the vegetation and figures in the background of the two plaques for the months of February and May in the Musée du Louvre (inv. no. MR 2548 and OA 953).

The treatment in low relief and the distinctive handling of line in the face are similar to the large plaques created by Pierre Courteys. Amongst Courteys’ works of interest, we can cite 9 oval plaques with 6 gods and 3 virtues dated 1559 held in the Musée d’Écouen (Jupiter, Justice, Mars, Hercules, Mercury, Saturn, Charity, Prudence and Apollo, inv. no. 1496-1504) and the Laocoon plaque in the Musée des Beaux-Arts of Limoges.
