The Fountain. Polychrome terracotta. 20th century, following models by CARRIER-BELLEUSE, Albert-Ernest (Aisne, 1824-Sèvres, 1887). The figure depicts a reclining, almost entirely nude child, his head adorned with a crown of golden leaves. He is shown holding a shell (with touches of gold), drawing water from a pitcher beside him, thus recalling the allegories of rivers or their sources in Ancient Rome. This work should be compared with Albert-Ernest Carrier-Belleuse's "La Source," housed, for example, in the Art Institute of Chicago or the Portland Museum of Art (of which several variations exist, differing in the figures and materials used). Albert-Ernest Carrier-Belleuse was a French sculptor and draftsman trained by David d'Angers and at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris. He achieved international recognition after participating in the Salon des Artistes Français in 1861 (winning the Third Medal), and went on to create notable works such as several busts of Napoleon III, the fireplace in the grand hall of the Paris Opera, and others. His work is held in prominent private collections and institutions such as the Musée d'Orsay in Paris and the Prado Museum in Madrid; in addition, his terracotta sculptures and monuments (such as the one of Bernardo O'Higgins in Santiago, Chile) should be mentioned. It is also worth highlighting the publication in 1884 of L\\'application de la figure humaine à la decoration et à l\\'ornementation industrielles, an important collection of decorative arts of the time, and in 1876 he was appointed art director of the Manufacture Nationale de Sèvres.

Desk. Mahogany wood. 19th century. A rectangular tabletop decorated with a band of vegetal motifs along the outer edge, its waistline enhanced with bands carved with egg-and-dart motifs and vegetal designs of classical influence, and legs decorated with an elegant cabriole shape and carved motifs (scrolls, bows, and simple vegetal themes extending along the waistline of the piece) topped with highly simplified claw-like shapes holding balls. This finial on the legs also appears in Chippendale examples and American works and, apparently, was a motif inspired by Far Eastern works, replacing the dragon's paw with the sphere with a lion's paw (thus demonstrating English supremacy) and becoming very popular in England during approximately the first half of the 18th century, before being revived later.

Boy. Carved and polychromed wood. 17th century. A polychrome wood carving depicts a semi-nude child, partially covered by a flowing cloth, standing in a pronounced contrapposto pose. This movement is softened by the position of the hands and the expression on the face, with the head inclined. It is possible that this is a sculpture of the Christ Child, given its resemblance to Baroque sculptural groups or painted scenes featuring several figures (more like the Christ Child with Saint John the Baptist than the Holy Family).

Bronze sculpture, “Cupid”. Inspired by models by Auguste Louis Mathurin Moreau (1834-1917). Lost-wax casting. The figure of the child is identified by its wings and the bow it displays. Cupid appears semi-nude, with his quiver at his feet and a tree stump behind him. The work is based on models created by a member of the renowned Moureau family. Mathurin first exhibited at the Paris Salon in 1848, and in 1897 he received a Medal of Honor. His work, rooted in that esteemed family style, exhibits a number of distinctive characteristics that are still present in this sculpture.
