Item Description
An impressively crafted Crown Naples Capodimonte moulded and polychrome finished box and cover with scalloped corners. The mounted and hinged lid decorated with an intricate, figural scene depicting a Neoclassical genre scene with a figure seated in his robe on a chariot pulled by winged, mythological animals which can be seen pulling off the ground as the cloud swirl displays the air between the ground and the rising chariot. Two nude attendants can be seen on foot, with dogs on leashes while winged putti can be seen flying in the air. The scene takes place in a naturalistically decorated landscape. Below, the trim of the box lid is decorated with moulded and polychrome finished foliate imagery.
The box body with a mask, flanked by two mythical beasts with scrolling foliate motifs in relief.
Marked underfoot.
