Madonna and Child with souls in Purgatory
Lacquered and gilded papier-mache with polychrome wooden base
cm 96.5 x 37.5 x 28
"At that time I asked the Lord Jesus: 'For whom do I still have to pray?'. Jesus answered me that the following night he would make me known for whom I had to pray. I saw the Custodian Angel, who ordered me to follow him. At a moment I found myself in a foggy place, invaded by fire and, in it, a huge crowd of suffering souls. These souls pray with great fervour, but without effectiveness for themselves: only we can help them. The flames that burned them, they did not touch me. My Guardian Angel did not abandon me for a moment. And I asked those souls what their greatest torment was. And they unanimously answered me that their greatest torment is the ardent desire of God. I read the Madonna who visited the souls of Purgatory. The souls call Mary 'Star of the Sea'. She brings them refreshment ".
(Diary of Sister Faustina Kowalska p. 11)
A Polish religious, Saint Faustina Kowalska (1905-1938) reinterpreted in the pages of her testimony the ancient role of the Virgin as savior and supporter of the souls of Purgatory. The Second Vatican Ecumenical Council established that, assumed into Heaven, the Mother of God should operate a continuous intercession in favor of those children waiting for Paradise who were in the place, quoted for the first time by Pope Gregory the Great...

Early 19th Century Continental Grand Tour Bronze Sculpture of Venus de' Medici
Located in Nottingham, GB
This captivating early 19th-century Continental Grand Tour bronze sculpture of Venus de' Medici is a stunning representation of classical beauty and neoclassical artistry. Cast with remarkable detail, the figure portrays the renowned statue of Venus, revered for its grace, sensuality, and timeless elegance. The finely executed bronze finish, with its warm, aged patina, further enhances the sculpture's antique charm, making it a remarkable piece that captures both historical significance and artistic mastery.
The Grand Tour, a traditional journey undertaken by young Europeans in the 18th and 19th centuries to study classical art and culture, was an era that saw an increasing appreciation for classical sculptures, and this piece is a quintessential example of the era's influence on European decorative arts. Whether displayed as a centerpiece or as part of a larger collection, this Venus de' Medici sculpture evokes the grandeur of ancient Rome and the Renaissance period, embodying the pursuit of beauty that defined the neoclassical movement.
The Venus de Medici is an ancient Greek statue that represents the goddess Aphrodite (Venus in Roman mythology). It is a marble sculpture, dating back to the 2nd century BCE...

Two Early 19th Century French Empire Gilt Bronze Candelabra
Located in London, GB
These magnificent candelabra were cast entirely of gilt bronze in the French Empire period of the early 19th century. Each candelabrum is formed as a cornucopia of scrolled branches holding four lights with drip pans, set on a single torch-form stem, held aloft by a Classical style figure.
The figures, one male and one female, are shown draped in swathed clothing, with the male figure depicted holding a quill in his other hand, whilst the female figure clutches a delicate bouquet of flowers. The figures stand upon circular bases, set onto ovoid vases which featured fluted details and central bands of laurel leaf motifs. The vases themselves stand on undulating roundels formed of acanthus leaves, which are further set atop square-form plinths.
Classically influenced works were popular during the French Empire period, when the Emperor Napoleon I sought to create a place in history for France alongside the ancient dynasties...
