About the Item
Antique Pair of Bronze Athena Goddess Candelabras by F. Souchal, Paris (c. 1850)
Crafted by the esteemed F. Souchal of Paris, this exquisite pair of bronze candelabras is sculpted in the likeness of Athena, the Greek Goddess of Wisdom / War. The figures boast stunning details, from their intricately designed features to the ornate circular bases, which are solid and have substantial weight.
Dating back to circa 1850, these candelabras reflect the rich artistic traditions of the 19th century.
F. Souchal, Paris, refers to François Souchal, a prominent French sculptor and art historian who made significant contributions to the documentation and study of French sculpture, particularly from the 17th and 18th centuries. His work includes detailed analyses and reproductions of sculptures from this period, providing valuable insights into the art and craftsmanship of the era.
Souchal's publications, such as "French Sculptors of the 17th and 18th Centuries," are considered essential references for understanding the evolution of French sculpture under the reign of Louis XIV. His meticulous research and scholarly contributions have helped preserve the legacy of many French sculptors and their works.
These candelabras are perfect for adding a touch of classical elegance to any space, making them highly sought after by collectors and interior enthusiasts alike.
