Pair Of Bronze Putti – Second Half Of The 19th Century

This charming pair of bronze putti with a brown patina embodies all the decorative refinement of the 19th century, an era when art drew freely on classical models to offer a sensitive and elegant interpretation of them.
Each finely chiseled figure depicts a young putto kneeling, his torso slightly turned, in a lively and graceful pose. The delicately modeled facial features, along with the curly hair, attest to particularly meticulous sculptural work. The drapery, rendered with fluidity, adds a touch of movement and softness to the overall composition.
The putti rest on solid black marble pedestals. A gold-plated beadwork trim accentuates the center of each base, adding a touch of refinement and creating a striking luminous contrast.
Distinctive decorative pieces, these bronzes will form a harmonious pair on a console table, a desk, or in a display case, and will appeal to lovers of 19th-century art objects as well as collectors of classically inspired sculptures.
