Placide Poussielgue-Rusand, Paris, -19th century
About the Item
PLACIDE-BENOIT-MARIE POUSSIELGUE-RUSAND (Paris 1824-1889 Paris)
Chalice
Placide Poussielgue-Rusand (1824-1889), was a gold & silversmith in Paris. He is known mainly for his liturgical objects: chalices, ciborium, patens, monstrances and was also the maker of the high altar of the Church of the Holy Trinity in Paris and the Crown of Light in the Cathedral of Notre-Dame de Paris.
Placide Poussielgue-Rusand modeled the decorative elements of this chalice after those made in France in the second half of the seventeenth century. The chalice is a rare example of a nineteenth century goldsmith working in the manner of the seventeenth century, a style that was not “in vogue” at the time, when patrons preferred the more current neo-gothic style. Poussielgue-Rusand’s passion for the art of the late seventeenth century is reflected in the chalice’s abundance of cherub heads framed by outspread wings and shell forms.
This iconography reflects the spirituality of the French school, which focused its theological contemplation on the Passion of Christ, its promise of salvation, the teachings of Jesus, and above all the institution of the Eucharist, of which the chalice is the instrument.
