Sculpture, Figural Candlestick Castillian School, Spain, 16th-17th Centuries
About the Item
Sculpture (figural candlestick). Carved and polychrome wood, wrought iron. Castilian school, 16tyh-17th centuries.
Carved and polychrome wooden sculpture placed on a simple base showing a half-naked male figure, holding with his hands a cloth that covers the lower part of his body in front and holding up a wrought iron cone to put a candle. The nude, the study of anatomy, the contrapposto and the twist of the torso and waist of the figure are details that would speak of a classicist influence in sculpture. It is also worth highlighting the movement that the posture brings to the piece, placing one foot behind the other and turned with respect to that and slightly turning the waist. Wood was the most worked material in Spanish Renaissance sculpture, usually with a polychrome finish and with gold and stew. It was not until the second third of the sixteenth century that sculptors emerged in Spain who reached great heights in the Spanish Renaissance, inspired by Italian forms, but providing their own national touch, creating different schools, and with a clear preference for polychrome wood. and stewed. In this time, one of the main workshops was Valladolid, with names like Alonso Berruguete and Juan de Juni. Later, the art was evolving towards a classicist or romanist mannerism, with an important influence of Italian masters, with clear influence of Michelangelo and names like Gaspar Becerra, Esteban Jordán, Juan de Ancheta, etc."
