A matched pair of late 19th century Bohemian / German majolica porcelain urns. With a contrasting mix of Christian, mythological, grotesque and neoclassical elements, they exemplify the highly decorative, "art for art's sake" ideology of the Aesthetic Movement (1860-1900). Colorful and engaging, the style was a direct and confrontational answer to the rise of mass-produced and industrial culture. With impressed marks "R.H. 35" on their bases, the urns were most probably manufactured by Reinhold...

Popular style choker. Spain, circa late 19th century. Gold choker and small pearls (of different shapes and sizes) with a rectangular closure secured with a chain and another ring clasp, which has a series of "links" decorated with gold filigree and aljófar, alternating ones with a composition that recalls to a flower or rosette with others whose lines are more reminiscent of a bird; to the front, there is a piece with a symmetrical rosette composition at the centre and wings like a butterfly on the sides, from which hangs a vegetable (pendant) form. All these elements or forms have been drawn with a base in gold and have been decorated and enhanced with filigree of turned gold thread and fixed pearls with gold wire. The jewel presents details that recall certain outstanding pieces of the 18th century, showing the connection with the usual tradition in this type of objects that, at present, are still very appreciated for their quality, their brightness and their connection with the world of regional costumes...

"Girl with flowers on a basket". Sculpture in white marble and bronze, on base, Spain, 19th century. The pedestal, in the shape of a column with a smooth shaft, elevates the sculpture and highlights it with its elegance of lines and lack of exaggerated decorative elements (aside from some moldings in what would be the capital and the marbled marble change in the upper piece, on which the sculpture is located). The figure of the girl, carved in a white marble of great quality, is sitting, looking towards the distance, and with a bouquet of flowers in her arms and a medal hanging from a cord around her neck. When sitting on a basket with flowers the figure is softened, in addition to enhancing it with the chromatic contrast existing between the flowers and the basket (patinated bronze) and the figure. The hair of the girl, with a pictorial waves without a powerful chiaroscuro, contrasts with the detail of the dress, perfect both in the ruffles of the neck and in the embroidery of the fabric and with which, in addition, an "informal" touch has been added to show fallen a strait and the skirt wrinkled. This lack of formality fits perfectly with the theme, and is slightly accentuated by presenting the figure with socks (or stockings, dropped) and without shoes. The realism of the face (attenuated with a slight idealization) suggests that it is a child portrait. The pictorial treatment of the figure and the roses relate it to artistic approaches that emerged during the 19th century and with a certain aesthetic and skill level. Stylistically, it is possible to relate it to the environment and the influence of two key figures of 19th-century Spanish art for their invoice, traits, technical mastery and originality: Agustín Querol...
