About the Item

The fountain. Polychrome terracotta. 20th century, following models of CARRIER-BELLEUSE, AlbertErnest (Aisne, 1824-Sèvres, 1887). The figure shows a boy, lying down and almost totally naked, with his head enhanced by a golden leaf crown. It is shown with a shell (with touches in gold), taking water from a pitcher next to it, thus recalling the allegories of the rivers or of the birth of the same of Ancient Rome. It is necessary to compare the present work with the one entitled “La Source” by Albert-Ernest Carrier-Belleuse, preserved, for example, at the Art Institute of Chicago or the Portland Museum of Art (of which there are a number of variants, changing the characters and the material used). Albert-Ernest Carrier-Belleuse was a French sculptor and draftsman trained with David d'Angers and at the School of Fine Arts in Paris. He achieved international recognition from his participation in the Salon of the French Artists of 1861 (Third Medal), reaching outstanding works such as various busts of Napoleon III, the fireplace in the great hall of the Paris Opera, etc. His work is preserved in outstanding private collections and in institutions such as the Musée d'Orsay in Paris, the Prado Museum in Madrid, etc .; In addition, we must remember its terracotta and its monuments (such as that of Bernardo O'Higgins in Santiago de Chile). It is also necessary to highlight the publication in 1884 of L \\ 'application de la figure humaine à la decoration et à l \\' ornementation industrielles, an important collection of samples for the decorative arts of the time, and who was appointed director of art for the Manufacture in 1876 Nationale de Sèvres." · Size: 50x25x40 cms
