- Ruchot Jean Charles French Sculptor Art Noveau Statue of "Science" in SpelterBy Jean Charles RuchotLocated in Prato, TuscanyWe kindly suggest you read the whole description, because with it we try to give you detailed technical and historical information to guarantee the authenticity of our objects. Particular and elegant statue in spelter with marble base; the sculpture represents a young woman in a beautiful plastic and slender pose that holds in the left hand a laurel wreath and in the right hand a sheet of paper with an inscription, probably of scientific formula, in fact, the statue is the interpretation of "Science". The crown "triumphalis", precisely called "laurel crown", in Greek mythology symbolized wisdom and glory, it was the highest honor for a poet who had just graduated. Laurel was considered a sacred plant also by ancient Romans: it was venerated in particular by Apollo, god of the sun, music, poetry, sculpture, and painting. Precisely because of his countless knowledge, in fact, Apollo represented wisdom and intelligence. On the pedestal has been applied a scroll with the name of the sculpture itself and that of its author: Jean Charles Ruchot. It was made in spelter, with the technique of "lost wax", by the artist himself in his workshop in Romainville, a French commune located in the department of Seine-Saint-Denis, between 1900 and 1905. Jean Charles Ruchot, the refined and prolific artist, was active from 1890 until 1925, he produced classical works inspired by antiquity, then he was influenced by Art Nouveau, then by Art Deco, styles in which he expressed his greatest talent; he created many statues both in bronze and in spelter, he is also the author of many objects of decorative arts: lamps, sculptural groups for clocks and advertising objects. Spelter is a zinc-lead alloy that is aged to resemble bronze, but it is softer and can be easily melted and worked unlike bronze, composed of copper and tin, which melts between 850° and 1020°. Spelter has been used since 1860 to make objects that could compete with bronze, because of its great convenience and ease of use, this material had very strong dissemination and use when many sculptors and bronze Art Nouveau and Art Deco used...Category
