Front of altar or antipendium, shield of the Congregation of the Holy Redeemer. Plaster or stucco. XIX-XX centuries.
Altar frontal made of plaster or stucco, which has a stone-like finish, except for the central piece. This rectangular strip has a golden finish and a fine relief with leaves of clear Gothic memory, leaving in the center a square with lobes on the inside and vegetal details on the outside; this square shelters a shield with polychrome.
The shield used by the Congregation of the 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 the lance and a sponge in a rod and the abbreviated names of Jesus (IS intertwined) and Mary (AM entwined); on the Latin cross, an eye with luminous rays; on top of all these elements, an open crown. This Congregation was founded in 1732 by San Alfonso María de Ligorio in Scala (Italy), and approved by the Vatican in 1749. In Madrid, the construction of the Sanctuary of Perpetual Help Parish in neo-Gothic style by the architect and Redemptorist brother was very important. Gusttave Knockaert (the 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.
Carved wooden chapel with decoration on the upper part of the railing and balusters in the shape of a vase of a certain Baroque memory, which presents three of its four fronts in transparent glass and stands slightly on circular legs. Inside, you can see a golden background (in the front room of the chapel, enhancing a carved and polychrome vegetal composition), and a polychrome sculpture of the Immaculate Conception surrounded by alternating flat and wavy and pointed and circular light rays. The carving stands on a pedestal, and presents a white tunic and a blue cloak; Mary stands on the Orb of Creation, in which a serpent appears (linked to Sin). The carving shows a clear influence of models from the Spanish Baroque, in addition to certain details such as the position that can be linked to Neoclassicism. This mixture and the maintenance of the baroque influence are common in eighteenth-century Spanish sculpture."

Oak wood clothes press, Holland, 19th century.
Clothes press with a locked cupboard at the bottom made of oak wood in Holland. As is normal in these utilitarian elements, it lacks decoration, and was used to smooth clothes. It is not usual to keep these types of objects because they were very frequently discarded once better technical innovations became accessible. Oak wood was chosen for its realization due to its hardness and resistance."

Oak wood clothes press, Holland, 19th century.
The press stands on four turned legs (three of them secured with a straight chambrane), with a drawer underneath. Being a merely utilitarian piece of furniture, it hardly presents any decorative elements. The oak wood used in its manufacture was chosen for its hardness and resistance, since these presses were used to smooth clothes as much as possible."

Writing desk. Bronze. XIX century.
On a tray of curved profiles decorated with moldings and scallops on its edges are placed the four containers that make up the writing desk. The sandbox or sandbox, the feather duster and the inkwell have clear lines and smooth areas, combined with fine moldings resembling a cord; the oval box with a knob-topped lid shows smooth moldings on its entire outer surface. Although certain details (particularly the tray) could be reminiscent of certain Rococo works of the 18th century, the attenuation of the movement of the same, the decoration of the containers, the lines and the lack of outstanding decorative elements would be more characteristic of the Neoclassicism of the centuries XVIII and XIX, as is the inspiration in styles of the past and the combination of several currents in the same piece."

Sculpture in calamine. Signed “Aug. Moreau ”. Following models by Auguste Moreau, France, 19th century.
It is reminiscent of works such as the bronze entitled "The Fountain" by Mathurin Moreau, and pieces by Hyppolyte Moreau or 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 in 1861, where he will participate regularly until 1913. He was also a member of the Société des Artistes Français. His themes - genre scenes, pastoral, allegorical - and his realistic and graceful style link him to other members of the Moreau dynasty, known for their small bronze works that were widely reproduced and inspired many other teachers, both during the life of the artists and after their death."
