Interesting Desk Set in the Memory of French Russian Alliance
Estimate: 500-700€An interesting Russian desk set commemorating the Franco-Russian Alliance (1891–1894).
Porcelain, polychrome painting.
Height: 26.5 cm.The composition depicts two soldiers — one French, the other Russian — standing together in a friendly handshake, symbolizing the military and political union between the two nations at the end of the 19th century. The French soldier is dressed in a grey-blue tunic and red trousers, while the Russian wears a dark green uniform with red shoulder boards and a fur cap. At their feet lie a drum and a cannon barrel, linking the scene to a martial setting.
The piece likely served as a desk accessory, combining decorative and symbolic purposes. Such objects were produced in Russia around the time of the Franco-Russian Alliance, a pivotal event that reshaped the European balance of power before World War I.
The alliance, formalized between 1891 and 1894, united Republican France and Imperial Russia in mutual defense against the growing threat of Germany and Austria-Hungary. It marked the beginning of the diplomatic configuration later known as the Triple Entente.
This porcelain figure embodies the spirit of solidarity and goodwill between the two nations and stands as a vivid example of late 19th-century commemorative art, blending political symbolism with the charm of genre porcelain sculpture.
