Pair of Antique 19th C French Patinated Bronze Ewers Emblematic Water & Earth
About the Item
A Fabulous Pair of Antique 19th Century French Patinated Bronze Ewers Emblematic of Water & Earth. These are a popular and well-known model of ewers named "Sacred to Bacchus" as well as "Sacred to Neptune" GD's of earth and oceans, respectively. The water ewer is made with Neptune seated on top with his hands wrapped around the top of the ewer neck holding the sides of a dolphin. Neptune has a mermaid-like lower body fitted with scales and a bi-cut tail, while his upper half is of an older man with a beard. The ewer is further decorated with decorations of seaweed, acanthus leaves, and a fluted waisted socle. The earth or wine ewer is made with Bacchus seated on top of the spout with his hands around the spout holding the horns of the ram. This ewer is decorated with grapes and grapevines, emblematic of wine and earthly scenes. These ewers were carved out exceptionally well with an incredible amount of detail. The original models of these ewers were most probably created by the exceptional Claude Michel "Clodion".
