Item Details

Description

Gilt and patinated bronze
Presumably France, 2nd half of the 19th century
Three-part structure
Putto with loincloth sitting on a gilt naturalistic rock base with a textured surface, holding gilt flowers in his hands
High gilt base in the Louis XVI style; oval shape with fluted plinth adorned with bead molding and acanthus leaves; recessed body with profiled cartouches and floral decoration; fluted cornice
Overall height, including pedestals: 47 cm
Good condition
Expressive depiction of a putto, which probably depicts an allegory of spring

This beautiful French bronze putto dates from the second half of the 19th century and has a three-part structure. The putto with shoulder-length and wavy hair sits on a gilt rock base, which is mounted on a pedestal in the Louis XVI style. He is dressed with a loincloth and a shoulder belt and holds gilt flowers in his hands. His head is slightly tilted, his face buried in thoughts. His brown patinated body contrasts nicely with the gilt flowers and bases. The figure is most likely to be understood as an allegory of spring, a common motif that appears in the art of the antiquity to the present.

The bronze is in good condition, showing traces of restoration to the rock base. The garland of flowers lies loosely in the right hand of the putto. The total height, including the bases, is 47 cm. The figure is about 29 cm in height.
