THE ADLINGTON HALL OAK SIDEBOARD A VICTORIAN OAK 'JACOBEAN' SIDEBOARD CIRCA 1860 The shaped gallery centred by an armorial device and motto 'DA.GLORIAM.DEO', flanked by shaped shelves with strapwork and fleur-de-lys backs and supported by seated lions, the pot-board with a boldly carved cabochon and foliate border, the pedestals with panelled doors centred by satyr masks and with semi-robed bearded herms to the angles, on plinth bases. 176cm high, 306cm wide, 108cm deepProvenance: Probably acquired by Charles Richard Banastre Legh (1821-88) for Adlington Hall, Cheshire, possibly as part of a refurbishment of the mansion, and thence by descent. Literature: Adlington Guide Book: 'The large Jacobean sideboard was made from oak grown in Adlington Park.'Oak Jacobean sideboard with superstructure centred by an armorial device 'da gloriam deo' and flanked by outset platforms supported on rampant lions holding shields. Features include boldly carved cabochon borders above pedestal cupboards with outset corbel figures and a conforming wine cooler' The present lot was probably acquired for Adlington Hall by Charles Richard Banastre Legh (1821-88), Justice of the Peace and Deputy Lieutenant of Cheshire. He inherited Adlington in 1829 as a descendant of a cadet branch of the Legh family, and through the female line; the direct male line having ended in 1781 with the death of Charles Legh of Adlington (1697-1781). In 1846, Mr. Legh married Mary Jane Arabella Wright, a daughter of the Rev. Henry Wright of Mottram Hall, Cheshire, hence the central armorial including the Wright Family. According to his obituary in 1888, immediately before his marriage in 1846, a member of the family, Colonel Charles Crosse Legh, had sold by auction the valuable library of books, many family portraits and 'other objects forming the chief contents' from Adlington (The Advertiser, 2 March 1888, p. 5). This may explain why there is a proliferation of mid-late 19th-century antiquarian furniture at Adlington. Charles Richard Banastre Legh does not appear to have maintained a London house, preferring to remain at Adlington as a traditional Cheshire squire where he was highly esteemed as a landlord by his tenants. The design for the sideboard was possibly inspired by the Kenilworth sideboard exhibited by Cooke & Sons of Warwick at the 1851 Great Exhibition. The sideboard, now at Warwick Castle, was made from a fallen Kenilworth oak tree. The extravagant carvings depict scenes from the novel, Kenilworth, by Sir Walter Scott, first published in 1821. The upper section is decorated with the coronet, arms and emblems of the Earls of Warwick (R.W. Symonds, Victorian Furniture, reprinted London, 1987, pl. 26). This historicist style remained fashionable; another comparable sideboard was exhibited by Levien of London at the 1862 International Exhibition, London (illustrated in The Art Journal illustrated catalogue of the International Exhibition, 1862, p. 36); this sideboard while still adhering to the horizontal lines of the Kenilworth sideboard incorporated a rich addition of Renaissance motifs, which helped to make the older framework more stylish (K. Ames, 'The Battle of the Sideboards', Winterthur Portfolio, vol. 9 (1974), pp. 8, fig. 8; p. 10, fig. 11). Earlier, in 1838, Richard Bridgens included a sideboard and wine cellaret 'in the Elizabethan style' from Aston Hall, Warwickshire, illustrated in Furniture with Candelabra and Interior Decoration, plates 28, 30.  Condition Report: The plank top opening at joints, split to right hand end panel. Split to the moulding on the left hand side. Left hand pedestal opening of the joint on the base below the right hand corner. Splits to panel on left hand carboard door.

His bold colour contrasts and elegant, linear compositions, painted with a certain polish, displayed the Florentine tradition of artists such as Carlo Dolci. According to the biography of Filippo Baldinucci’s (1624–1697), Cesare Dandini was a precocious artist who trained first with Francesco Curradi and then briefly with Cristofano Allori. Baldinucci writes that ‘Pietro, suo padre, decise di rimuoverlo e lo collocò con Cristofano Allori, essendo stato precedentemente con Curradi per lo spazio di tre anni interi. Ciò avrebbe aperto un ampio campo a Dandini per diventare un grande uomo imitando lo stile di quel grande maestro.’ (‘Pietro, his father, decided to remove him and placed him with Cristofano Allori, as he had already been with Curradi for three full years. This change would have given Dandini ample opportunity to become a great artist by emulating the style of that great master.’) He then went on to train with Domenico Passignano, who returned to Florence in 1616. Baldinucci also wrote that Dandini was an exceptionally beautiful youth, as seen in his Self-Portrait as a young man, and Curradi's model for numerous Madonnas, with a temperament that meant he was offended by the scurrilous activities in Allori's studio, a reaction that accords with the sense of refinement in his art. Their nephew Pietro Dandini was Vincenzo's pupil, and Pietro's two sons, Ottaviano (1681-1740) and Vincenzo (1686-1734), a Jesuit, worked as painters in Florence.In 1621 he enrolled in the Accademia del Disegno and by 1631 he had acquired many patrons, notably Lorenzo de' Medici who would remain one of his most important supporters. He developed a theatrical, idealised style that was harmonious in form and colour and restrained in movement and expression. He shared with Florentine contemporaries Jacopo Vignali and Carlo Dolci a devotion to the style initiated in the 1590s by Lodovico Cigoli, Gregorio Pagani, Jacopo da Empoli, Domenico Passignano and Francesco Curradi and refined in the 1610s and 1620s by Matteo Rosselli, Giovanni Bilivert and Cristofano Allori, who was perhaps the most influential for Dandini. His production included everything from portraits in miniature on copper to large-scale portrayals of religious and literary themes, as well as half and three quarter length secular and allegorical figures, such as the present painting. An Allegory of Painting and Poetry (Ut Pictura Poesis) is undoubtedly one of the most elegant and refined allegorical compositions in Dandini's oeuvre, which can be dated between the late 1640s or early 1650s. Here, two allegorical female figures are shown in conversation with one another, their statuesque poses enhanced by the marble-like beauty of their pale skin. With her head turned slightly to the right, Poetry gestures to a putto with her left hand, and rests her right hand on an open book which is placed on an ornate wooden lectern, on which a mask hangs. Her companion, the female figure of Painting, is represented with her paint brushes and a stylus in her hands. The Allegory of Painting and Poetry is an iconographic theme which was highly regarded by the Florentine painters of the seventeenth century in reference to Horace's Ars Poetica and the traditional motto of ut pictura poesis, a Latin phrase meaning ‘as is painting so is poetry’. The idea of ut pictura poesis captures the complementary nature of poetry, or writing, and painting, equating the inspiration of the poet and writer with the imagination of the painter. Both are concerned with the imitation of nature: the painter through visual elements and the poet or writer through words.
