19th C. French Grand Tour Dore Bronze Colonne de Juillet Mounted as a Lamp

About the Item

A large and high quality 19th century French Dore bronze Colonne de Juillet mounted as a lamp. The Colonne de Juillet is a monument in France in recognition of the Revolution of 1830. It stands in the middle of the Place de la Bastille, and recognizes the "three glorious" or Trois Glorieuses (July 27-29) which was the fall of Charles X the King of France and the commencement of King Louis-Philippe, "King of the French". It was built between the years 1835 and 1840. This piece is truly spectacular and embodies the true masterpiece of the original Colonne de Juillet. The columnar body rests on a round carrara marble socle, which holds-up the dore bronze column. The dore bronze column sits on a square marble base which steps up-to a carrara marble base with dore bronze medallions symbolizing the great country of France. The upper portion is ornamented with Barye lions masks in high-relief with four putti found on either side of the upper column. The corinthian style column was designed by Jean-Antoine Alavoine. The middle of the column is all hand-chassed and hand-chiseled with the names of all the people that passed away during the 1830 war. The base is fitted with Eagles with garlands extending from each of their talons. The base is very ornate with a tremendous amount of detail, with square plaques each with writing symbolizing the war, dates and other France inspired quotes. This piece was latter fitted with electrical components to be used as a lamp. France, Circa: 1860 Measures: Height with electrical fitting: 36 inches Height without electrical fittings: 25 inches The electrical components are adjustable in height.
