Gas lamp in glass, gilt bronze and enameled porcelain. 19th century A pedestal adorned with rocaille and medallions serves as the base for the porcelain vase decorated with roses, which forms the body of the lamp and features two metal handles. The top houses the valve for controlling the gas flow, and the flame is protected by a glass cylinder encased in a carved, pink glass flower. While not neglecting the functionality of these pieces, considerable time and effort have been dedicated to the decorative aspects, as this lamp is intended for a prestigious interior.

Guang Yu, Zhang Fei and Liu Bei. Watercolor. China, early 20th century. Framed painting showing three male figures, with a text on the right side.

Bronze sculpture “Cupid”. Inspired by models by Auguste Louis Mathurin Moreau (1834-1917). Marble base Lost wax casting. The figure of the child is identifiable by his wings and the bow he holds. Cupid appears half-naked, with his quiver at his feet and a tree stump behind him. The work is based on models created by a member of the well-known Moureau family: Mathurin exhibited for the first time at the Paris Salon in 1848, and was awarded a Medal of Honour in 1897. His work, inserted in this appreciated family style, shows a series of peculiarities that are still maintained in this sculpture.
