EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the prestigious Duche de Modene - Order of the Eagle, specifically the badges of knight grand cross that once belonged to Alphonse de Bourbon des Deux Sicilies. Alphonse, also known as Alfonso di Borbon-Due Sicilie, was a prominent figure in Italian nobility during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The intricate craftsmanship of these badges is evident in their design by Fabricques by Halley in Paris between 1850-1900. Made from gold, silver, and emaux, they exude opulence and elegance. The plaque measures approximately 8.6 cm in diameter and weighs around 60 g, while the badge stands at a height of 8 cm with a width of 5.9 cm and weighs about 30 g. These honorary decorations symbolize power, prestige, and recognition within aristocratic circles. They serve as a testament to Alphonse's esteemed position as Count of Caserta from 1894 until his passing in 1934. Currently held within an anonymous private collection but made available through Luisa Ricciarini's archive, this photograph allows us to appreciate not only the historical significance but also the artistic beauty captured within these remarkable pieces. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to an era where such regal adornments were highly coveted symbols of status and honor. It serves as a reminder of the rich history embedded within each meticulously crafted detail—a true testament to human creativity throughout time.
