EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning piece of art, the "Double Salt (one of a pair), Paris, 1798/1809" created by Martin-Guillaume Biennais. This artifact from the late 18th to early 19th century represents the exquisite craftsmanship and artistic brilliance of European applied arts. The double salt is made of cast silver with intricate chased silver designs, adorned with gilded accents that add a touch of opulence. The golden hue enhances its regal appearance, making it an exceptional decorative item for any art enthusiast or collector. The design features delicate floral motifs and an aquatic bird, beautifully capturing nature's essence in this homeware masterpiece. Its historical significance lies in its association with Napoleonic France, adding another layer of interest to this remarkable artwork. Displayed at the Art Institute Chicago, this artifact stands as a testament to French heritage art and serves as a window into the rich cultural history of Europe during that period. The collaboration between Martin-Guillaume Biennais and Pierre-Benoit Lorillon has resulted in an extraordinary creation that continues to captivate viewers even centuries later.
