finely executed portrait depicts count matvei yuryevich vielgorsky (1794-1866), one of the most prominent figures of russian cultural life during the first half of the nineteenth century. a distinguished patron of the arts, musician, and member of the celebrated vielgorsky family, the sitter was closely associated with many of the leading literary and artistic personalities of imperial russia, including alexander pushkin, mikhail glinka, and karl briullov himself. the sitter is shown in a restrained bust-length composition against a dark neutral background. dressed in formal black attire with a high open collar, black cravat, waistcoat, and white shirt secured with a gold pin, vielgorsky is portrayed with characteristic dignity and introspection. the artist's treatment of the face emphasizes psychological depth rather than outward display. the direct gaze, subtle modeling of the features, and carefully balanced palette reflect the mature portrait style that established briullov among the foremost painters of nineteenth-century europe. the painting is accompanied by a scan of the expert opinion issued by the state scientific research institute of restoration (государственный научно-исследовательский институт реставрации, госниир), moscow, dated december 15, 1995, signed by the noted artist-restorer and expert n. yu. sharkov. the report identifies the work

technical examination, ultraviolet and infrared analysis, and stylistic study supported the attribution. the expert specifically noted that the technical characteristics of the canvas, ground, paint

painterly methods, treatment of costume details, handling of the hair, and psychological characterization are consistent with russian portrait painting of the second quarter of the nineteenth century

count matvei yuryevich vielgorsky (1794-1866), one of the most prominent figures of russian cultural life during the first half of the nineteenth century. a distinguished patron of the arts, musician, and member of the celebrated vielgorsky family, the sitter was closely associated with many of the leading literary and artistic personalities of imperial russia, including alexander pushkin, mikhail glinka, and karl briullov himself. the sitter is shown in a restrained bust-length composition against a dark neutral background. dressed in formal black attire with a high open collar, black cravat, waistcoat, and white shirt secured with a gold pin, vielgorsky is portrayed with characteristic dignity and introspection. the artist's treatment of the face emphasizes psychological depth rather than outward display. the direct gaze, subtle modeling of the features, and carefully balanced palette reflect the mature portrait style that established briullov among the foremost painters of nineteenth-century europe. the painting is accompanied by a scan of the expert opinion issued by the state scientific research institute of restoration (государственный научно-исследовательский институт реставрации, госниир), moscow, dated december 15, 1995, signed by the noted artist-restorer and expert n. yu. sharkov. the report identifies the work as \"портрет м. ю. виельгорского\" by

the russian enamel frame, reflecting the common 19th-century practice of translating printed portraits into painted miniatures for personal display. \n dimensions: 4 x 3 1/8 in., (10 x 8 cm.) \n conditions: the miniature appears to be in very good condition. the enamel is very well preserved. no chips, cracks, imperfections or restoration. the silver mount has light oxidation. the velvet backing is lightly worn. \n \n please make all inquiries before bidding. \n all lots are sold \"as-is\", refer to our t&c. \n helios auctions offers in-house shipping. in case we can not accommodate a

early 2 volume edition of the brilliant satire by prolific french novelist claude prosper jolyot de cr&eacute;billon (1707-1777), son of the famous french poet and playwright prosper jolyot de cr&eacute;billon (1674-1762). this work was extremely controversial at the time of its first publishing in 1734 due to its blatant criticism of important political and religious figures of the era, including the cardinal de rohan and the papal bull 'unigenitus' issued by pope clement xi. it was so controversial, in fact, that de crebillon ended up in the famous prison of vincennes, the same which would later hold the marquis de sade during his first imprisonment. the story purports to be an old legend from chechnya which had been translated first into japanese, then chinese, then dutch, then latin, and finally into french from the venetian dialect of italian. this farce is continued even into the publishing info of the title page, where the book pretends to have been published in 'pekin' (beijing) at lou-chou-chu-la, his chinese majesty's sole printer for foreign languages. the tale is about a prince named tanza&iuml; who marries a woman named n&eacute;adarn&eacute; before his 21st birthday, thereby breaking an agreement he made with a fairy. he is punished by having his genitals magically transformed into a milk-strainer, the only method of reversing the curse being to have a priest lick his altered genitals clean. both volumes contain the bookplate of lord john rushout, 1st baron northwick, a famous english art collector and politician, and fellow of the society of

jolyot de cr&eacute;billon (1707-1777), son of the famous french poet and playwright prosper jolyot de cr&eacute;billon (1674-1762). this work was extremely controversial at the time of its first publishing in 1734 due to its blatant criticism of important political and religious figures of the era, including the cardinal de rohan and the papal bull 'unigenitus' issued by pope clement xi. it was so controversial, in fact, that de crebillon ended up in the famous prison of vincennes, the same which would later hold the marquis de sade during his first imprisonment. the story purports to be an old legend from chechnya which had been translated first into japanese, then chinese, then dutch, then latin, and finally into french from the venetian dialect of italian. this farce is continued even into the publishing info of the title page, where the book pretends to have been published in 'pekin' (beijing) at lou-chou-chu-la, his chinese majesty's sole printer for foreign languages. the tale is about a prince named tanza&iuml; who marries a woman named n&eacute;adarn&eacute; before his 21st birthday, thereby breaking an agreement he made with a fairy. he is punished by having his genitals magically transformed into a milk-strainer, the only method of reversing the curse being to have a priest lick his altered genitals clean. both volumes contain the bookplate of lord john rushout, 1st baron northwick, a famous english art collector and politician, and fellow of the society of antiquaries. this 2 volume leatherbound set was published in paris, france, in 1756. volume 1

melons, blossoms, and scrolling foliage rendered in brilliant jewel-like colors. the figures wear garments characteristic of later persian and mughal painting traditions, suggesting production during the late qajar period or in a workshop influenced by persian manuscript aesthetics. although presented as an independent framed work, the painting likely derives from an album page or was created in the style of manuscript illustrations intended for muraqqa' albums. the decorative treatment and vibrant palette make it a highly attractive example of the continued revival of classical persian miniature painting during the 19th century. \n dimensions: 11 x 16 1/4 in., (28 x 41.3 cm.) \n conditions: framed under glass and not examined out of frame. overall, the miniature retains strong decorative appeal. \n \n please make all inquiries before bidding. \n all lots are sold \"as-is\", refer to our t&c. \n helios auctions offers in-house shipping. in case we can not accommodate a
