About the Item
A rare, possibly unique, pair of candlesticks in the form of putti, representing The Four Seasons. This is the pair pictured in Stonor’s book (#94); we’ve been unable to locate another complete pair.
There are four putti in all, each representing one of the Four Seasons. The goats provide a link to Bachus, and symbolise joy and prosperity, all the year round.
The pair is also unusual for having its full bocage. This would have been made by a jeweller, working with metal and porcelain flowers from various makers. The effect of these large and unusually complete candle holders is quite stunning. They are the height of Rococo design.
Provenance: Taylor Collection, from Peter Foster; Stonor & Evans, NY; Leyland LeGanke.
