Vintage Peruvian Folk Art Traditional Mate Burilado Carved Gourd 3.5" wide x 2.5" tall, extremely well detailed, telling a story as shown. This is a nice old one circa mid 20th century with a fantastic patina and no issues. People from the valley at the basin of the Mantaro River, who are known as huancas, produce carved gourds, masks, jewelry, embroidery, ceramics and textiles for the national and international markets. In the 1930s, after the introduction of highways and railroads brought low-cost industrial products into the market, many of these crafts evolved from functional to decorative, replacing the use of the traditional vessels. On the gourds you can see stories ranging from cultural events—celebrations, folklore, myths and tragedies—to displays of everyday life. However, carved gourds incorporate more than just visual storytelling as the textural qualities of the gourd offer a new perspective to understanding the story itself. The gourds are brought to Cochas from traveling merchants, and after a gourd is skinned, cleaned and dried, artists can begin carving to create a three-dimensional design. Some artisans even use a burning technique, called quemado, to incorporate varying shades of brown to the art. They may also use the process called fondo negro to create black backgrounds on the carved gourds using fat and straw ash. The Canto sisters use small engraving tools to create each design by hand. T

Paul Jean Marie Sain (1853-1908) 1901 French Portrait of Chincholle. Really great original oil on Canvas. The man in the portrait resembles a French author named Charles Chincholle who died of a stroke in 1902. Hopefully I'll have more info at a later date. 16" x 19" framed, 11" x 14" canvas. No restorations, clean frame, clean painting other than two small scuffs one to the left of the top of his head, another just above it to the right of the signature. Below are the Biographies of both the artist and Charles Chincholle. One thing they have in common is They were both at one point named knights of the Legion of Honor. Charles Chincholle was appointed the year this painted was done, a year before his death. I've found a few portraits of him online and it looks like him to me. Jean-Paul Marie Saïn (5 December 1853, Avignon - 6 March 1908, Avignon) was a French painter, known primarily for landscapes and portraits. Paul Jean Marie Sain studied under noted Academic painters Jean Leon Gerome and Charles Michel Guilbert d'Anelle. Sain made his debut at the Paris Salon in 1879. His paintings of marine scenes and lush romantic landscapes were well received and he was awarded honorable mention in 1883, a third place medal in 1886, a bronze medal in 1889 and in 1900 at the Paris Exposition Universelle. He was made a Knight of the Legion of Honor in 1895. His works are in the collection of the Musee du Louvre, Paris, Musee du Luxembourg, Paris, Musee de Perpignan and the Alencon Fine Art Museum. Charles Henri Hippolyte Chincholle , born on July 16, 1843 in Amiens 1 and died onAugust 26, 1902in Paris , is a French journalist and writer . He is considered to be the first major French reporter. Biography Son of Barthélémy Hyppolite Chincholle and Pélagie Victoire Aimée Quequet, Charles Chincholle was declared by his father under the first names of Henri Charles Hippolyte 4 , 5 . He began studying medicine, which he left quite quickly. Last secretary of Alexandre Dumas from 1865 to 1870 6 , Chincholle wrote in the newspapers founded by the latter such as Le Mousquetaire or Le D'Artagnan , as well as the Parlement , la Liberté , Paris-Journal , before entering, in 1872, at Villemessant 7 au Figaro where he became one of the main reporters, following all the important public events and signing some of his articles under the pseudonym of Henri Hamoise 8 or Georges Rip 7 . He thus follows the Boulangist campaignand let himself be seduced for a time by the personality of General Boulanger , of whom he became the unofficial memorialist. However, when the latter was installed in Jersey, Chincholle wanted to see him and was not received. Therefore, it burned down what he loved, and we could read, under his signature, the phrase: "I leave the Boulangism as it leaves a bad love 9 . " Founder of several newspapers such as Le Lucifer , which only saw a few issues 10 and L'Estampe, artistic journal (1884-?) 11 , being a great fan of engravings, he was also president of the Cercle de l'escrime. We owe him numerous interviews with celebrities such as Paul Verlaine and Auguste Rodin . In addition to his countless reportage and current affairs articles and despite his active life and his almost daily collaboration with Le Figaro , Chincholle has written a dozen novels, including La Juive du Château-Trompette published under the name of Ponson du Terrail , serialized in the Little Bordelais, in 1871 12 , eight plays, five or six volumes of contemporary history or biography, and a number of short stories, fantasies and varieties 7 . In 1870, he had a very cheerful little act performed at the Folies-Dramatiques , Uncle Margottin , which had more than three hundred performances. He then praised the theater's new order to give a drama of it, the husband of Joan , black drama that ended with the of the wife and the lover 10 . One fine day, passers-by stopped, bewildered, in front of his poster which read "Free entry for adulterous women." »The story does not say if there were many of them at the control.9 . Entered the Société des gens de lettres in 1885, he made eleven years on the Committee, and has successively served as secretary, Quaestor and Vice President 7 . He had also succeeded Aurélien Scholl as president of the Cercle de l'Escrime et des Arts 13 . In 1901, he was appointed knight of the Legion of Honor 14 . He succumbed to a stroke the following year 15 . He is buried in the cemetery of Cergy 7 : 175 .

Louis-Ernest Barrias (French, 1841 - 1905) Ferdinand Barbedienne (1810-1892) Diminutive Bronze footed vase with Child hanging from vines. A Barrias work cast by Barbedienne. A fantastic piece from the last quarter of the 19th century that everyone has room for. 4.25" tall x 4" handle to handle, solid bronze, extremely heavy for it's size, great patina. Louis-Ernest Barrias (13 April 1841 – 4 February 1905) was a French sculptor of the Beaux-Arts school. In 1865 Barrias won the Prix de Rome for study at the French Academy in Rome. Barrias was involved in the decoration of the Paris Opéra and the Hôtel de la Païva in the Champs-Élysées. His work was mostly in marble, in a Romantic realist style indebted to Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux. He was born in Paris into a family of artists. His father was a porcelain-painter, and his older brother Félix-Joseph Barrias a well-known painter. Louis-Ernest also started out as a painter, studying under Léon Cogniet, but later took up sculpture with Pierre-Jules Cavelier as teacher. In 1858 he was admitted to the École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris, where his teacher was François Jouffroy. In 1865 Barrias won the Prix de Rome for study at the French Academy in Rome. Barrias was involved in the decoration of the Paris Opéra and the Hôtel de la Païva in the Champs-Élysées. His work was mostly in marble, in a Romantic realist style indebted to Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux. In 1878 he was made a knight of the Legion of Honour, an officer in 1881, and a commander in 1900. Barrias replaced Dumont at the Institut de France in 1884 then succeeded Cavelier as professor at the École des Beaux-Arts. In 1900-03 he served on the Council for the National Museums. Among his students were Josep Clarà, Charles Despiau, Henri Bouchard, Fernand Hamar, and Victor Ségoffin. Ferdinand Barbedienne (1810-1892) was the inspiration and driving force behind one of the most important French art foundries. He pioneered the use of mounts and, more commonly, bronze sculpture including figures and animals. Barbedienne produced catalogues of bronze reproductions of Greek and Roman classical sculpture and experimented with champlève and cloisonné enamels during the third quarter of the century. Barbedienne exhibited several pieces of furniture at the 1855 Paris Exhibition including an ormolu mounted oak dressing table and an ormolu mounted ebony veneered bookcase. Both pieces were executed in his favoured Renaissance revival style for furniture. Furniture with mounts signed by Barbedienne is extremely rare. The Barbedienne foundry handled the casting of numerous national monuments and architectural schemes. Ferdinand Barbedienne himself also took an active part in the promotion of contemporary sculpture and became one of the founders for Davis d'Angers' medallions as well as much of Rude's sculpture. His signature varied from hand written capitals to stamp in capitals, usually F. Barbedienne, Fondeur or BARBEDIENNE PARIS. In 1839 Barbedienne collaborated with the inventor Achille Collas who had succeeded in enlarging and reducing works of art to arbitrary sizes by a simple mathematical calculation, allowing the accurate reduction of classical and contemporary marbles for the purpose of reproduction in bronze. In 1850 Barbedienne was commissioned to furnish the Paris town hall for which he was awarded with the 'medaille d' honneur' at the Paris Exposition Universelle in 1855. Barbedienne's awards: Paris, 1878; 'Grand Prix', 'Grande Médaille d'Or', 'Diplôme d'honneur' , and 28 'Médailles de Coopérateurs'. Vienna 1873; 2 'Diplômes d'Honneur', 'Médailles de Progrès', and 25 'Médailles de Coopérateurs'. Paris 1867: 'Jure Rapporteur (Hors Concours)'. London 1862; 3 Medals for Excellence.
