Centerpiece in bronze and glass.
Lost wax casting of bronde.
It is cup-shaped, with the base made of four bamboo canes joined with a cord and decorated with flowers and leaves, the transparent glass container and the two handles with inward curved leaves. Although the form responds to a very old prototype of centerpieces, the prominence of plants and the presence of bamboos brings the work closer to more recent approaches related to Romanticism and the 19th century."

Bronze figure located on a circular base that shows a boy dressed in a humble way, holding a kettle and raising his hand to his mouth in a gesture of shouting or proclaiming his "merchandise" or services.

Dubois) refers to the sculptor Paul Dubois (France, 1829-1905), whose works would inspire the present sculpture (especially one in particular, very similar to this one)."

Bronze sculpture representing the Art Nouveau naturalistic effigy of a half-naked boy with a branch where two birds perch. Following models of A. MOREAU.
This denomination refers to the intention of creating a new art, carrying out a break with the dominant styles at the time, such as historicism or eclecticism. It is about creating a new aesthetic, in which inspiration in nature predominates while incorporating novelties derived from the industrial revolution. And so in architecture the use of iron and glass is frequent. However, it is also a reaction to the poor aesthetics of iron architecture, so in vogue in those years.
To a large extent its aspirations are based on the ideas of John Ruskin and William Morris, which we can summarize in democratizing beauty in the sense that even the most everyday objects have aesthetic value and are accessible to the entire population (socialization of art), although without using the new techniques of mass production. Modernism not only occurs in the major arts, but also in the design of furniture and all kinds of useful objects in everyday life. Modernist artists are often "integral" artists, designing not only buildings, but furniture and other items for daily use. Thus, many modernist architects are also designers, since their creations are not limited to the building itself, since they also elaborate its decoration and the utensils that it must contain. Consequently it occurred in architecture, painting, sculpture and in the decorative arts (furniture, fittings, lamps, jewelry, posters, etc.)."
