About the Item

Zingara, large bronze with brown patina by JB Clésinger, a large dancer richly dressed and adorned with jewels. This sculpture was transformed into a lamp, removing the tambourine that the zingara held in her left hand. We find the signature of "J Clésinger Rome 1858" on the tree trunk against which the dancer is leaning, the stamp "F Barbedienne fondeur" on the base and that "Réduction mécanique Collas brevetée" also on the trunk. Clésinger is a French sculptor (1814-1883). He studied sculpture in Rome from the age of 18 and then returned to Paris in 1838. After many trips, he exhibited for the first time at the Paris Salon in 1843, a salon in which he would offer works throughout his career and receive several awards. His works are mostly exhibited in museums. He surrounded himself with the best craftsmen of his time, with Barbedienne and Collas. Good general condition, traces of wear to the patina, old restorations to the arm (at the level of the key, surely following the electrical assembly) - electricity need to be redone 19th century Height of the bronze 127 cm (at the fingertips) Height at the socket: 130 cm Diameter approx. 50 cm
