About

The project reveals the history of artistic enamel through rare items from museum and private collections. Here, the Russian tradition, the Limoges school, and individual artistic explorations meet. The exhibition unveils artistic enamel as an art form where fire, metal, glassy mass, and precise drawing combine into a complex decorative image. Works by Russian and French masters are gathered in one space, allowing visitors to trace the path of this technique from the Middle Ages to the 20th century. One of the key sections is dedicated to Limoges - a city that became the most important European center for enamel work. Items from the 12th to the 20th centuries are presented here: a rare reliquary casket, works by the masters Penico and Raymond, as well as an edition of "The Life of Joan of Arc" with enamels by Jules Sarlandie. The Russian line of the exhibition is built around its own school of enamel - from the 17th century to modern experiments. Visitors see vases, bowls, goblets, plates, boxes, and samples of Rostov finift. Among the names and workshops presented are Fabergé, Ovchinnikov, Khlebnikov, the workshop of Princess Tenisheva, and others. The project includes items from museum and private collections, many of which are being shown for the first time. For other events in Moscow, search on KUDAGO.
