Baroque Figurative Sculptures
BAROQUE STYLE
The decadence of the Baroque style, in which ornate furnishings were layered against paneled walls, painted ceilings, stately chandeliers and, above all, gilding, expressed the power of the church and monarchy through design that celebrated excess. And its influence was omnipresent — antique Baroque furniture was created in the first design style that truly had a global impact.
Theatrical and lavish, Baroque was prevalent across Europe from the 17th to mid-18th century and spread around the world through colonialism, including in Asia, Africa and the Americas. While Baroque originated in Italy and achieved some of its most fantastic forms in the late-period Roman Baroque, it was adapted to meet the tastes and materials in each region. French Baroque furniture informed Louis XIV style and added drama to Versailles. In Spain, the Baroque movement influenced the elaborate Churrigueresque style in which architecture was dripping with ornamental details. In South German Baroque, furniture was made with bold geometric patterns.
Compared to Renaissance furniture, which was more subdued in its proportions, Baroque furniture was extravagant in all aspects, from its shape to its materials.
Allegorical and mythical figures were often sculpted in the wood, along with motifs like scrolling floral forms and acanthus leaves that gave the impression of tangles of dense foliage. Novel techniques and materials such as marquetry, gesso and lacquer — which were used with exotic woods and were employed by cabinetmakers such as André-Charles Boulle, Gerrit Jensen and James Moore — reflected the growth of international trade. Baroque furniture characteristics include a range of decorative elements — a single furnishing could feature everything from carved gilded wood to gilt bronze, lending chairs, mirrors, console tables and other pieces a sense of motion.

Titus Flavius Caesar Vespasian Augustus (in Latin: Titus Flavius Caesar Vespasianus Augustus; in the epigraphs: IMP•T•CAESAR•VESPASIANUS•AVG•PON•M•TR•POT[1]; Rome, 30 December 39 – Aquae Cutiliae, 13 September 81, better known simply as Titus, was a Roman emperor, belonging to the Flavian dynasty, and reigned for just over two years from 79 to 81, the year of his death.
Before ascending the throne, Titus was an able and esteemed general who distinguished himself for the repression of the rebellion in Judea in 70, during which the second temple in Jerusalem was destroyed. He was considered a good emperor by Tacitus and other contemporary historians; he is known for his program of public works in Rome and for his generosity in rescuing the population following two disastrous events: the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 and the fire in Rome in 80. Famous is the definition that the historian Suetonius gave of him:
"Amor ac deliciae generis humani. » « Love and delight of mankind. »
Titus' family, the gens Flavia, belonged to that Italian nobility which, in the first half of the first century, was gradually replacing the more ancient Roman aristocracy, weakened by the decades of civil wars fought in the first century BC. The Flavians, in fact, were not of noble origins, but they managed, within just three generations, to rise from humble origins to the honor of the imperial purple. Tito's paternal great-grandfather, Tito Flavio Petrone from Rieti, had fought as a centurion evocatus in the army of Gnaeus Pompey the Great during the civil war of 49-45 BC, fighting in the battle of Farsalo and fleeing after the defeat of the Pompeians; he was pardoned by Cesare and became tax collector...

The Basilica of Saint Clement Lateran is a complex of buildings in Rome, Italy centered around a Catholic church dedicated to Pope Clement I. The site is notable for being an archaeological record of early Rome's religious, political, and architectural history. from the Christian era to the Middle Ages.
The old church was transformed over the centuries from a private home that was the site of clandestine Christian worship in the first century to a grand public basilica in the sixth century, reflecting the growing legitimacy and power of the emerging Catholic church.
The house was originally owned by a Christian consul and martyr, Tito Flavio Clemente, who was one of the first Roman senators to convert to Christianity. He allowed his house to be used as a secret meeting place for his fellow Christians, which religion was then prohibited.
There is evidence of a pagan cult at the site. In the 2nd century members of a Mithraist cult built a small temple dedicated to Mithras in an insula, or apartment complex, on the site. This temple, used for initiation rituals, lasted until around the end of the 3rd century.
Excavations in the 1860s revealed the first forgotten basilica underlying the medieval one. In the late 4th or early 5th century, after Christianity had become the official religion of Rome, the small church was enlarged, acquiring the neighboring insula and other nearby buildings; the architects began to work on the complex of rooms and patios, building a central nave on the site of the previous church, and an apse on the previous mithraeum. The new church was dedicated to Pope Clement I, a first-century Christian convert and a contemporary of Titus Flavius Clement. Restorations were undertaken in the 9th century and around 1080-99.1
Apart from those in the Church of Santa Maria Antiqua, the most extensive collection of wall paintings from the early Middle Ages are those found in the lower basilica of San Clemente. Over the following centuries, San Clemente became a "beacon" for church artists and sculptors, benefiting from the generosity of the Byzantine Empire. Currently, it is one of the most richly decorated churches in Rome.
The last great event that occurred in the lower basilica was the election in 1099 of Cardinal Rainerius of San Clemente as Pope Paschal II.
The current basilica was rebuilt in a campaign by Cardinal Anastasius, c. 1099-h. 1120, after the original church was burned to the ground during the Norman sack...

17th Spanish Sculpture in Carved Silver Gild Wood Saint Michel, Castilia
Located in Valladolid, ES
One of a kind Baroque Spanish St Michel sculpture. A museum piece !!
The artistic imprint shows the typical Castilian traces in the conception and interpretation of the subject. This allows us to frame the attribution to a close circle of the stela left by Gregorio Fernández (1576-1636) in the very recognized Castilian circle.
The artist responsible for the creation of this magnificent carving has undoubtedly been trained in the footsteps of Fernández in the Castilian Baroque context. He powerfully remembers the Archangel San Miguel preserved in the reliquary of the Church of San Miguel de Valladolid; belonging to the first third of the seventeenth century.
Both carvings show great parallels in the spatial conception, in the configuration of the cloths...

Goldscheider Manufactory and Majolica Factory (German: Goldscheider'sche Porzellan-Manufactur und Majolica-Fabrik, (now) Goldscheider Keramik) is an Austrian ceramic manufactory.
In 1885, Friedrich Goldscheider came from the small Bohemian city of Pilsen to Vienna and founded the Goldscheider Manufactory and Majolica Factory. It became one of the most influential ceramic manufactories of terracotta, faience and bronze objects in Austria with subsidiaries in Paris, Leipzig and Florence. For over half a century Goldscheider created masterpieces of historical revivalism, Art Nouveau (Jugendstil) and Art Deco. Famous artists such as Josef Lorenzl, Stefan Dakon, Ida Meisinger and the two perhaps best known Austrian ceramic artists Michael Powolny and Vally Wieselthier worked for Goldscheider. Several of the artists who worked for Goldscheider also worked for other Viennese studios, such as Augarten, Keramos or for the German brands Rosenthal and Meissen.
The Goldscheider family emigrated in 1938 to United Kingdom and USA. Walter Goldscheider startet a new factory in Trenton, New Jersey and returned to Vienna in 1950. Marcel Goldscheider went to Stoke-on-Trent and produced figurative ceramics for Myott and opened his own studio in the 1950s in Hanley. Both brothers died in the early 1960s.
More than 10,000 different models were created over a period of three generations. Since the very beginning many of these won first prizes and gold medals at innumerable world fairs, exhibitions and trade fairs. Goldscheider figures...
