About the Item

This stunning antique bronze sculpture, titled “Two Putti with a Dish,” is signed “Aug Moreau” and attributed to the renowned French sculptor Auguste Moreau (1834-1917). The piece masterfully captures two cherubic putti supporting a large, intricately woven dish with raised handles. The dynamic composition brings a sense of playful movement, as the putti appear to interact with the dish they hold. Their finely detailed expressions and the naturalistic treatment of their forms reflect Moreau’s characteristic artistry. The base is adorned with organic motifs, including foliage and playful animals, adding a touch of whimsy to the scene. The rich patina enhances the depth of the bronze, showcasing the remarkable craftsmanship. The sculpture bears the stamp “Cire Perdue,” indicating the lost-wax casting technique, known for its precision and durability. This exceptional piece is both a decorative and collectible work of art, perfect for those who appreciate 19th-century French bronze sculpture and the charm of classical themes. 6h x 10w x 5d
