About the Item
CAST IRON WALL-MOUNTED GARDEN FOUNTAIN WITH A LION'S MASK
Circa early 20th century with later teal painted surface
30 3/8" H x 15 3/4" W x 5 7/8" D
Cast iron wall-mounted fountain, early to mid-20th century. The arched backplate features a relief of a lion’s head fitted for a spout beneath scrolling floral motifs in the upper spandrels and vine-and-berry relief on either side beneath floral rosettes and simple finials. The demilune basin is a separately cast piece joined with (replaced) screws, the gadrooned rim projecting over gentle tapered reeding around the bowl. Finished in a later teal paint. Designed for garden or courtyard use, this classic form draws on 19th-century European models that combined decorative appeal with functional water delivery. Unmarked.
Condition: Refinished in a modern teal paint - we are also happy to have it refinished in another color upon request. Both screws joining the basin to the backplate have been replaced. Ready to place.

French Antique Bronze Sculpture Bas-Relief "Lion of the Zodiac" by Antoine-Louis
By Antoine-Louis Barye
Located in Shippensburg, PA
This Fine bas-relief sculpture of Lion de la Colonne de Juillet (Lion du Zodiaque) portrays the astrological sign Leo as a prowling and ferocious lion with a mane that engulfs his head and neck, walking a Fine line along a narrow ledge while opening his mouth like one about to emit a growl. He is set against the equatorial band of the sun's path as it makes its way through the various illuminations of the zodiac. Barye was employed by the architect Jean-Louis Duc to model this bronze lion for the western side of the July Column. Erected in the Place de la Bastille in Paris, the monumental structure commemorated the overthrow of the Bourbon monarchy and the 504 lives lost in the insurrection. Influence for the model is perhaps somewhat owed to Visconti's "Walking Lion" held at the Musée Pie-Clémentin, a more romantic anthropomorphic modeling of this powerful beast. Glenn Benge observed that the lion was likely based on the engraving by Pietro Santo...
