Gilt And Patinated Bronze "Chariot Of Love", A. Moreau
About the Item
French 19th century gilt and patinated bronze, "Chariot Of Love" by Auguste Moreau (1834-1917), French sculptor.
Charm and poetry define this delightful sculpture which declines, in a neo-rococo style, a most dreamlike allegorical subject: The Chariot of Love.
Set on an oval base in "Rouge" marble, it immediately seduces our gaze with an exquisite sculptural composition made of delicately chiseled double-patina bronze. With a design as original as it is harmonious, the latter depicts, gracefully nestled in a gleaming Chariot in the shape of a marine Conch, a cute Cupid, winged cherub with plump shapes modeled with suavity. Captured in a lively and dreamy attitude, this smiling and zealous Messenger of Venus, goddess of Love, pretends to follow the progress of the divine vehicle carried by a pair of Doves fluttering, wings spread, above clouds with stylized undulations.
