A Pair of Louis XVI Style Gilt-Bronze Three-Light Wall Appliques
Located in Brighton, West Sussex
A Pair of Louis XVI Style Gilt-Bronze Three-Light Wall Appliques, After The Model By Jean Louis Prieur. Each modelled as a putto term figure issuing three laurel cast branches terminating in circular stiff-leaf cast drip-trays and fluted nozzles, beneath a neoclassical pediment and flaming urn. Designed in the architectural style of the goût grec, these wall lights derive from a drawing by the ‘maître sculpteur’ Jean-Louis Prieur (b. 1732-6 d. 1795), for a similar wall light with a putto figure, executed circa 1770 and sold Sotheby's Monaco, November 26, 1979. France, Circa 1870. One of the leading exponents of the Neo-classical style, Prieur was received as a ‘maître sculpteur’ in 1765, then ‘maître-fondeur en terre et sable’ in 1769. He initially studied sculpture at the Académie de Saint-Luc, Paris in 1765. The following year, working alongside Caffieri he produced a series of designs for furniture, clocks, vases, wall lights and chandeliers for the Polish king's palace in Warsaw. This commission led to work for the French royal family...
