Holy Virgin, Silver Bronze Statuette After Emmanuel Frémiet

The Blessed Virgin (Immaculate Conception) is represented dressed in a drape, her head covered, holding a fleur-de-lys and crushing the serpent symbol of sin. Silvered bronze bearing the FREMIET signature. Numbered cast iron by Charles More from the late 19th century (this model was still presented in the catalog of the founder and publisher Barbedienne after 1910, the date of Frémiet's death). Beautiful condition of presentation, absence of the crown, cherry red marble base included in the height mentioned. Emmanuel Frémiet was born in Paris in 1824. This brilliant sculptor who dealt with numerous themes (religious, famous characters, mythological, animal, equestrian, etc.) is at the origin of prestigious masterpieces presented in the high places of the national territory .
