Last week I bid on and won a lot in the auction of the Dr. Sidney Reingold collection of reliefs, sculptures and paintings. Among the seven pieces in the lot I captured were two very rare galvano plaques. The two were correctly attributed to sculptor Jules Roiné but obviously the terse description did not reveal their full history.
The 16-inch tall plaques are matching portraits of Henry Hudson and Robert Fulton. They were issued – no surprise here – for the Hudson-Fulton Celebration in New York City. This 1909 event was the inspiration for year-long celebrations on the river named for the English explorer, who traversed these waters three hundred years previous, and the steamboat inventor who tested his inventions on these same waters one hundred years previous.
It was also cause for numerous medals and plaques to be issued that year, including the first issue in the medal series, Circle of Friends of the Medallion, by John Flanagan. Chester Beach, Emil Fuchs, among other American medalists, also seized the opportunity to create Hudson-Fulton medals, plaques and badges for this occasion.
The catalog description did mention Medallic Art Company for both pieces, but this is not strictly the case. They were created by Roiné and Weil Company the year before Medallic Art was formed. But Jules Roiné, Henri Weil and Felix Weil, were all closely associated, and their work intertwined, as I will relate in this report.
Jules Edouard Roiné was born in Nantes, France, 1857, and came to America in 1881. He plied his trade as a sculptor as an active member of the New York City circle of sculptors where he met countrymen and brothers Henri and Felix Weil. The trio formed a lasting friendship and bonded with common heritage and professional interests.
Roiné exhibited 28 items at the American Numismatic Society’s Exhibition of Contemporary Medallic Art in 1910, nineteen of which were galvano casts. The others were only a portion of the fifteen known struck medals he had created prior to this time. What is evident from this list is that he was proficient in preparing sculptor’s models which were appropriate for either a struck medal or a bas-relief plaque.
Roiné’s plaques were all electrogalvanic casts (except for a Lincoln portrait which was foundry cast by Gorham in Providence Rhode Island.). He was creating these galvano casts as art objects as early as 1894. This was an ideal method of reproducing sculptors’ small bas-relief models (it was only the size of the tank that limited the size of the object to be replicated).
An electrogalvanic tank was required, plus copper anodes, and a source of low voltage, direct current. The tank had to contain a solution with a high content of copper ions. (It also required a cyanide chemical in the solution to aid the deposition, so the operator had to know what he was doing working with the highly toxic chemical.)
Roiné obviously had knowledge of electroforming, the technology of making galvano casts. Whether he had his own tanks and performed this task himself, we do not know. Whether he taught this to his friends Henri and Felix Weil, we also do not know. It makes sense, however, since the Weil brothers were sculptors’ assistants. They performed any and all chores required of them by the sculptors they worked for.
Felix, younger of the Weil brothers, had just come off a job working for the firm that created and installed all the decorative trim in the public rooms of the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel. Felix was looking for his next assignment. This was about 1908.
Since 1902 Henri had been working for the Deitsch Brothers, a firm of ladies finer accessories specializing in handbags. Their handbags were trimmed with silver findings and Henri had been hired to make these. He cast these at first but learned of the Janvier reducing machine in Paris on a trip there and influenced his employers to obtain one of these machines. It arrived in Summer 1902.
Perhaps Felix wanted something a bit more permanent, instead of relying on work from New York sculptors. But sculpture work was what he knew best. Joining with Jules Roiné as a partner in a sculpture workshop seemed to meet both their requirements. Roiné had more commissions than he could handle himself making Felix an ideal partner.
They formed Roiné, Weil and Company in 1908. Their output for the following year was enormous. Not only was it the New York City celebration for Hudson-Fulton, it was also the centennial of the birth of Abraham Lincoln. The pair kept busy providing models and patterns for both these medallic functions to medal manufacturers, including Henri as Medallic Art Company, Whitehead & Hoag in Newark, in addition to Gorham.
Irrespective of whoever received the commission, Henri at Medallic Art or the partners at Roine and Weil, it was Roiné who prepared the model, Felix made the galvano cast. This was taken to Henri, two blocks away to his workshop, where Henri cut the dies. Henri subcontracted striking the medals to one of the metalworking shops nearby and “colored” the struck medals afterwards. He would give them a lacquer coating after applying a French finish highlighting their detail.
This arrangement among the three Frenchmen worked well through the years following the halcyon days during the dual anniversary year of 1909.
While Henri struggled at first to make a success of the infant Medallic Art Company, Roiné and Weil prospered. Without Roiné’s knowledge, the brothers, Henri and Felix, pooled their earnings no matter who made what where. They split their earnings. In effect, Roiné and Weil was supporting Medallic Art Company in the early years of the 1910 decade.
It could be said without question: Without a Julius Edouard Roiné there may not have been a Medallic Art Company had it gone under during those early lean years.
Henri repeatedly asked Felix to join him at Medallic Art to help make the infant firm viable. But Felix was happy in his association with Roiné. This continued until the year 1915 when disaster occurred. Roiné contracted Bright’s disease (kidney failure). His illness precluded him from working further at the level as before.
Roiné wanted to return to France. He bid farewell to their workshop and Felix put his partner and his family on a steamship bound for France. Roiné died the following year, April 11, 1916.
Felix tried to keep the sculpture workshop going on his own, but ultimately succumbed to Henri’s pleas to come join with him at Medallic Art. He did so in 1916.
But Jules Edouard Roiné was as important to the early development of Medallic Art Company as were Henri and Felix Weil. Despite the fact he was not an employee, nor involved other than furnishing the necessary models for Henri to cut the dies. For this reason I have appended the full entry of Roiné from my Databank of American Artists.
ROINÉ, Jules Édouard (1857-1916) French-American medalist.
Correct form: Jules Édouard Roiné.
Born Nantes, France, 24 October 1857. Came to America 1881.

Made models for Felix’s brother Henri (at Deitsch Bros) and also for Whitehead & Hoag. Roiné dissolved partnership with Weil after he becoming ill with Bright’s disease (kidney failure); he returned to France 1915.
Died France, 11 April 1916.
Fellow: National Sculpture Society.
