Set of six pillars. Carved wood, stone base. India, 19th century. Row of six carved wooden pillars with capitals at the top and carved stone bases at the bottom (grouped in pairs). The shafts have three different sections (square, polygonal and spiral) and relief decoration along them, consisting of plant elements, lines, simple architectural motifs, smooth areas, geometric shapes, etc. The capitals have a certain reminiscence of Western classical forms in their composition and decorative elements. This type of architectural element was, for example, very often used in the “havelis” (urban residences or traditional mansions) in India, Pakistan, Nepal and Bangladesh, with the usual differences depending on the geographical area, the date and the owner’s taste, but also in other notable buildings.

Altar front or antipendium, shield of the Congregation of the Most Holy Redeemer. Plaster or stucco. 19th-20th centuries. Altar frontal made of plaster or stucco, with a finish resembling stone, except for the central piece. This rectangular strip has a gold finish and a fine relief with leaves clearly reminiscent of Gothic, leaving a square in the centre with lobes on the inside and plant details on the outside; this square houses a polychrome shield. The coat of arms used by the Congregation of the Most Holy Redeemer (Redemptorists) is a derivation of its seal, defined in its statutes of 1764. On a blue background, there are three mountains, with the cross flanked by a lance and a sponge on a stick and the abbreviated names of Jesus (IS intertwined) and Mary (AM intertwined); above the Latin cross, an eye with luminous rays; above all these elements, an open crown. This Congregation was founded in 1732 by Saint Alphonsus Maria de Liguori in Scala (Italy), and approved by the Vatican in 1749. In Madrid, the construction of the Parish Sanctuary of Perpetual Help in neo-Gothic style by the architect and Redemptorist brother Gusttave Knockaert was of great importance (thus, Neo-Gothic being the most common style in the Congregation during the second half of the 19th century, above all).

Chapel of the Immaculate Conception. Sculpture, carved wood, glass, metal. Second half of the 18th century. A carved wooden chapel with decoration on the upper part of the railing and balusters in the shape of a vase reminiscent of the Baroque, which has three of its four fronts in transparent glass and stands slightly on circular legs. Inside, one can see a gold background (on the fourth front of the chapel, highlighting a carved and polychrome plant composition), and a polychrome sculpture of the Immaculate Conception surrounded by alternating flat and wavy and pointed and circular rays of light. The carving stands on a pedestal, and has a white tunic and a blue cloak; Mary stands on the Orb of Creation, in which a snake appears (linked to Sin). The carving shows a clear influence from Spanish Baroque models, as well as certain details such as the posture that can be linked to Neoclassicism. This mixture and the maintenance of the Baroque influence are common in 18th century Spanish sculpture.

Oak clothes press, Holland, 19th century. A clothes press with a lockable cabinet at the bottom, made of oak wood in Holland. As is normal for these utilitarian items, it is not decorated and was used to smooth clothes. It is not common to keep this type of object because they were very frequently thrown away once better technical innovations became available. Oak wood was chosen for its construction due to its hardness and resistance.

Writing desk. Bronze. 19th century. The four containers that make up the writing case are placed on a tray with curved profiles decorated with mouldings and scallops on its edges. The sandbox or sandpit, the feather duster and the inkwell have clear lines and smooth areas, combined with fine mouldings resembling a cord; the oval box with a lid finished in a knob has smooth mouldings on its entire outer surface. Although certain details (particularly the tray) could be reminiscent of certain Rococo works of the 18th century, the toned down movement of the tray, the decoration of the containers, the lines and the lack of prominent decorative elements would be more characteristic of the Neoclassicism of the 18th and 19th centuries, as is the inspiration in styles of the past and the combination of various currents in the same piece.

Sculpture in corrugated iron. Signed “Aug. Moreau”. Following models by Auguste Moreau, France, 19th century. It is reminiscent of works such as the bronze “The Fountain” by Mathurin Moreau, and pieces by Hyppolyte Moreau and Auguste Moreau (France, 1834 – 1917). Auguste began his training as a disciple of his older brother Mathurin. He made his debut at the Paris Salon of 1861, where he participated regularly until 1913. He was also a member of the Société des Artistes Français. His themes – genre scenes, pastorals, allegorical – and his realistic and graceful style link him with other members of the Moreau dynasty, known for their small bronze works that were widely reproduced and inspired many other masters, both during the artists’ lifetime and after their death.
