Reference: V4077
Bronze table leg with four lions. Based on models derived from Roman trapezoids (Pompeii, etc.). The four lion heads are positioned back to back, resting on a powerful feline paw, the transition between them adorned with volutes and vegetal motifs. The artist drew inspiration for this work from finds in Ancient Rome, known from museums (Metropolitan Museum, 13.115.1) or from references in books specializing in classical art (such as Franz Sales Meyer's A Handbook of Ornament).
