Rare octagonal box, pyxis, core of stained softwood, veneered with ebony, bone, red paste and bronze. Each side is adorned with an openwork plate of eight eight-pointed stars on two columns in a frame with red paste remains; the body is outlined with fillets at top and bottom; the lid is geometrically decorated with a frieze arrangement of interlaced braids forming an eight-pointed star; bronze trim consisting of hinges, false angles and lanceolate-ended feet, a hinged hasp with a closing plate with trefoil corners featuring three triggers for the passage of a pin, and a movable top suspension ring. Spain, Nasrid period, Granada, 14th/15th century Overall height 13 cm - Overall width 11.7 cm Box alone, H. 10.9 cm - W. 10.1 cm (slight deformation of the lid) This pyxis, which has come down to us in an excellent state of preservation, belongs to a fairly limited corpus of boxes made in al-Andalus featuring ivory or bone plaques with openwork eight-pointed star motifs. Of very similar dimensions, five have been catalogued to date: Private collection, León (fig.a), Instituto Valencia de Don Juan, Madrid, inv. 4867 (fg.b), London Sotheby's sale, June 10, 2020, lot 87 (fig.c), Museum of Decorative Arts, Madrid, purchase 2023, inv. CE 30485 (fig.d), David Collection, Copenhagen, inv. 1/2017 (fig.e). They come from workshops on the Iberian Peninsula during the Muslim occupation, and borrow their technique and decoration from the Arab art of the Maghreb. Several scholars have studied this production and agree that it dates back to the kingdom of Granada, under the Nasrid dynasty (1238-1492). The originality of the box presented here lies in the simplicity of its decoration, which does not use the fine geometric marquetry technique known in Spanish as taracea that can be seen on the five other examples mentioned above. The use of these boxes remains to be determined: some art historians see them as inkwells, others as pyxes, as some were sold by monasteries. The latter hypothesis seems plausible in view of the geometric layout used by Andalusian craftsmen under Muslim rule, which depicts stars as well as crosses. Works consulted : - Á.

Alpine region of southern Germany, 16th century H. 15.5 cm - W. 24.6 cm - D. 11.5 cm Key Collection label on bottom. (small accidents and missing parts, one plate redone, lock dismantled) Sofia Rodriguez Bemis, director of Barcelona's Museu Nacional de Artes Decorativas, has likened this case from the former Junyent collection to the Nuremberg production based on the use of brass. This thesis does not seem very convincing and it would be more likely to locate the production of this type of box further south, perhaps in the Alpine regions of southern Germany.

Fahar al-Salih (Belgrado, 1964)To die for you, from the series ‘Shelter’, 2015 Oil on canvas160 x 140 cm - Fahar al-Salih was born in Belgrade in 1964 to an Iraqi father and Serbian mother and grew up in Kuwait before moving first to Vienna and then to Germany. He currently lives and works between Karlsruhe and Baghdad. In 2009 he started painting different types of huts on canvas and called the series ‘Shelter’. The idea of placing the hut, or a simple building, at the centre of a series was suggested to the artist by his personal experiences. During his childhood, he had the opportunity to visit countries where the mountain landscapes were dotted with shelters, which left a strong impression on him. At the same time, the artist and his family lived in different countries, and the feeling of not having a permanent physical place that could be called home led him to feel like a nomad, a person who could find protection anywhere and in anyone. In ‘To die for you’ and the other abstract works in the series, the artist uses thick brushstrokes of colour and human presence is not admitted.

Fahar al-Salih (Belgrado, 1964)Senza titolo, dalla serie ‘Mosaics’ n. 2003, 2023Acrilico, resina e spugne per il lavaggio auto66 x 80 x 5 cm - Fahar al-Salih was born in Belgrade in 1964 to an Iraqi father and Serbian mother and grew up in Kuwait before moving first to Vienna and then to Germany. He currently lives and works between Karlsruhe and Baghdad. In the mixed-media work in the ‘Mosaics’ series, al-Salih used a series of car washing sponges, the same ones he uses to mix the colours on his canvases. Starting with everyday objects, he has created a work of art whose main characteristics are the balance and harmony of colours. The same balance and harmony that can be found in the mosaics made by the first Muslim craftsmen in the Middle East, and which are a source of inspiration for al-Salih's work. By choosing to recreate the highly symbolic Islamic mosaics, the artist also values his position as an Arab artist living in Europe.

In the artwork, however, the resulting spaces in the complex patterns are not filled with vegetal and geometric motifs, but with a collage of supermarket brochures, making Rosso an example of the encounter between tradition and modernity and the representation of one of the several aspects of the so-called pop culture.
