The Fountain. Polychrome terracotta. 20th century, following models by CARRIER-BELLEUSE, Albert-Ernest (Aisne, 1824-Sèvres, 1887). The figure shows a child, lying down and almost completely naked, with his head highlighted by a crown of gold leaves. He is shown with a shell (with touches of gold), taking water from a jug at his side, thus recalling the allegories of rivers or their sources in Ancient Rome. It is necessary to compare this work with the one entitled “La Source” by Albert-Ernest Carrier-Belleuse, preserved, for example, in the Art Institute of Chicago or the one in the Portland Museum of Art (of which there are a number of variants, changing the characters and the material used). Albert-Ernest Carrier-Belleuse was a French sculptor and draughtsman who trained with David d'Angers and at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris. He achieved international recognition after his participation in the Salon des Artistes Françaises in 1861 (Third Medal), producing notable works such as several busts of Napoleon III, the fireplace in the great hall of the Paris Opera, etc. His work is preserved in prominent private collections and in institutions such as the Musée d'Orsay in Paris, the Museo del Prado in Madrid, etc. In addition, we must remember his terracottas and his monuments (such as that of Bernardo O'Higgins in Santiago de Chile). 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 table. Mahogany wood. 19th century. Rectangular table top decorated with a band of plant motifs on the outer edge, waist enhanced with bands carved with ova and plant motifs of classicist influence and legs decorated with an elegant cabriole shape and carved motifs (scrolls, bows and simple plant themes that extend along the waist of the piece of furniture) finished with very simplified claw shapes holding balls. This finish on the legs also appears in Chippendale examples and in American works and, apparently, was a theme inspired by works from the Far East, replacing the dragon's leg with the sphere with a lion's (thus showing English supremacy) and making it very popular in England during, approximately, the first half of the 18th century, and later recovering it.

Child. Carved and polychrome wood. 17th century. Polychrome wooden carving showing a half-naked child, accompanied by a cloth fluttering in the wind that partially covers him, and standing with a marked contrapposto, a movement softened by the position of the hands and the expression of the face, with the head bowed. It is possible that it is a sculpture of the Child Jesus, given the similarity it presents with sculptural groups or painted scenes made up of various characters (more of the Child with Saint John than of the Holy Family) of the Baroque.

Rectangular chest of drawers on four legs with chamfered corners divided into two registers by a fine moulding: the upper one has a drawer highlighted by mouldings and the lower one has three others, all with two handles and a key lock.

In the 19th century it was very common to choose styles and examples from the past to create works more in keeping with the times.

Cameo. Victorian mount, circa 1850. Cameo with a bevelled rose gold mount made of shell (Cassius Cypraea; hence the type known in the 19th century as “coral”), with a figure sitting on clouds holding a jug and a bowl from which an eagle is eating. The theme, inspired by classical mythology of Antiquity, is the personification of youth, called Junventas or Juventus (her figure ended up being assimilated with that of the Greek goddess Hebe, who also personified youth and helped the gods by filling their cups with nectar, harnessing Hera’s horses, etc.), accompanied by the eagle of Jupiter (Greek Zeus). This is a very common theme in 19th century jewellery, especially in cameos, as it is considered the quintessential emblem of the diligent, caring and responsible daughter. Weight: 7.83 grm
