Synopsis
Excerpt from Jean-Baptiste Nini: Sa Vie Sa uvre, 1717-1786 Parmi les artistes de la fin du XVIIIe siecle, il en est un dont il nous a semble interessant de retracer en detail la vie, assez imparfaitement connue jusqu'ici; nous voulons parler de Jean-Baptiste Nini, Italien d'origine, que son savoir-faire avait designe au choix de Le Ray de Chaumont pour diriger les fabriques qu'il venait d'installer a Chaumont-sur-Loire. Los uvres de Nini, malgre leur importance et leur merite, n'avaient pu le soustraire a l'oubli, qui semble trop souvent, helas! devoir etre l'apanage du talent. Les annees si furieusement troublees qui suivirent la mort de Nini peuvent en quelque sorte excuser cette injustice; ce n'est que beaucoup plus tard cependant que ces medaillons, si recherches aujourd'hui, commencerent a attirer l'attention de quelques rares amateurs. Il appartenait a l'un d'eux, M. Villers, conservateur du musee de Blois lors de sa creation, de remettre en lumiere le nom de cet artiste que personne ne connaissait plus. Il eut d'abord la bonne fortune de pouvoir reunir an musee une importante collection de medaillons de Nini, dans laquelle figurent presque tous ceux qui sont le plus estimes; en outre, guide, comme il le dit lui-meme, par un sentiment de convenance, M. Villers s'occupa de recueillir, alors qu'il en etait temps encore, les souvenirs assez confus de la tradition locale.

- s***s (17)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseSeller was fine, arrived promptly with good packaging and in perfect condition. But I should have asked questions about the book. It is really just a recreation of a collection of pages from old catalogues. I was hoping for more information & history of some of the Chickering models. This was not worth $18 to me. Would have been helpful if the seller had given examples of some pages.
