About the Item
Pair of bronze candlesticks with their original dark brown patina by Christophe Fratin (1801-1864), an antique cast signed "fratin" in cursive, dating from around 1850. These candlesticks are adorned with three satyrs playing musical instruments: one plays the drum, another the Pan flute, and the third the aulos, all surrounded by intricate vegetal motifs.
Christophe Fratin, a renowned animal sculptor, exhibited at the Paris Salon from 1831 to 1842 and from 1850 to 1862, as well as at the Great Exhibition in London in 1851. His masterpiece "Eagles and Prey" has been on display in Central Park, New York, since 1863. His works can be found in prestigious locations such as the Château de Dampierre, the castles of Sans-Souci and Babelsberg in Germany, the Saint Petersburg park, and the Visconti Courtyard at the Louvre.
This rare model is listed in the catalog of Fratin's works (n°214) and features fauns and animal heads on a triangular base supported by hooves (Catalogue de tous les modèles en bronze publiés et inédits de M. Fratin, sculpteur, catalogue de vente, Me Bonnefons de Lavialle, 16, 17 et 18 avril 1850, Paris.).
Fratin collaborated with Alfred Daubrée, a sculptor and bronze editor born in Nancy in 1817.
