Bronze Lamp Signed Victor Paillard. Total height 71cm. High quality bronze. Victor Paillard is the son of Charles Paillard, a small landowner, and Denise Louise Victoire de Chaumont. Staying with his sister Mrs. Baudin in By-Thomery (Seine-et-Marne), his artistic talents were noticed by the Count of Guzmán[Which one?], who sent him to Paris to perfect his skills. After a stint at the Royal Free School of Drawing and training as a chaser, he was a student of Jean-François Denière and a collaborator of Ferdinand Barbedienne. Quickly recognized as one of the best bronze founders of his time, he created around 1830 a house of art objects and furnishings which would employ up to a hundred people in the mid-19th century. He received numerous official commissions, notably for the decoration of the Minister of Foreign Affairs' hotel at the Quai d'Orsay in Paris. Exhibiting in France and abroad, he was appointed member of the jury of the 1855 Universal Exhibition in Paris, and exhibited out of competition.
