"Poésie" a 19th Century French Polychromed Symbolist Marble Sculpture
By Dante Gabriel Rossetti
Located in Saint-Ouen, FR
"Poésie" a 19th century French Polychromed Symbolist marble sculpture A Carrare, Sienna and very rare Skyros Marbles Symbolist Sculpture Group. Figuring Poetry under the appearance of Dante and Béatrice resting on a rock, Dante holding in his hand a parchment titled "Poetry". It rests on a Neo-Renaissance moulded and hand-carved walnut rotating sellette, the barrel consists of three fluted Corinthian columns, decorated with foliage at the base, resting on a truncated column decorated with female masks connected by a drape. It’s joined, in the upper part, by arcatures with a background of foliated foliage and masks of women crowned alternately with cutout RT monogram. Moulded triangular base, with curved sides and rising from lobed angles with a frieze of oves at the base. Circa 1870 Measures: Sculpture: H. 75 CM • 29 1/2 IN. Sellette: H. 112 CM W. 44 CM - D. 49 CM H 44 1/8 IN. W 17 3/8 IN. D 19 1/4 IN. The poetry of Dante Alighieri (1265-1321) Beatrice Portinari, simply known as Beatrice or Beatrix, commonly refers to the muse of Dante Alighieri, whom he glorifies and loves. But she is also a woman whom, if one follows the New Life, Dante loved from his childhood, and to whom he dedicated a place in all his works. More sensitive than all is the resolute amplification which, after the pathetic force and expressionist intensity of Hell, intensifies with the more elegiac and penetrating emotion of Purgatory and leads to the miraculous triumph of the imaginary in Paradise. Of the three «hymns», it is Hell which is the most known, the most popular one can say: the taste of the picturesque, spread by the romantic criticism, is much to it. Dante, however, had the conviction, repeatedly affirmed in his poem, that by rising from one kingdom to another, he raised his poetry each time by a level which made it worthy of an ever more «high» matter. At a distance of six and a half centuries, there is certainly no obligation to share this view, however assured it may be for the poet. Anyone, however, who wants to enter the world of the Comedy must refuse the scale, eliminatory in its consequences of fact, which puts such a section above the other or brings the Comedy to a rosary of episodes more or less «beautiful» Gabriel Charles Dante Rossetti (12 May 1828 – 9 April 1882), generally known as Dante Gabriel Rossetti...

Antique and Vintage Pedestals and Columns

Antique and vintage columns and pedestals can make a statement in your home with their timeless beauty. They have a rich architectural history, from ancient Egyptian columns adorned with lotus capitals to the stylized Corinthian columns of Greece. Today, they can add refinement to your spaces, both indoors and out.

The options for pedestals and columns are endless. Influenced by everything from ancient ruins to European palaces, columns and pedestals include contemporary designs and distressed pieces. There are modern designs from all over the world, such as Pakistani, Italian and French examples. Other designs draw on architectural heritage, like those created in the Louis XIV style, which references Greece and Rome and evokes the decadence of Versailles through gold and vivid colors.

The materials used in columns and pedestals can vary widely. Marble and gilt pedestals add elegance, while patina brass columns offer sophistication. An upcycled item such as an industrial press can become a column, while certain mid-century barstools can be repurposed as pedestals.

Whether elaborate Victorian or Art Deco designs, pedestals and columns can be the base for another piece of art, adding height or accenting a sculpture. One or several can display ferns or other plants with trailing vines. Some pedestals come with planters for this purpose.

On their own, these elements can provide character and a touch of antiquity to one’s decor. Columns and pedestals made of stone, wood and rattan are among those available on 1stDibs. Browse hundreds of columns and pedestals to find one for your space.
