Description
Large French bronze – Signed ‘Moreau’ on the base – French Romanticism – 19th–20th century Patinated bronze sculpture. Measures 70 x 25 x 25 cm. A vertical allegorical composition featuring two child figures arranged around a flowering tree trunk, one perched amongst the branches and the other in an ascending pose beside a basket of fruit. The work is executed in a gentle and decorative style, with soft dynamism in the poses, rounded modelling, and careful attention to drapery, hair and vegetation. The surface has a uniform dark patina that accentuates the volumes and reinforces its ornamental presence. The piece reflects the 19th-century historicist and naturalist taste for allegorical scenes of childhood and abundance, conceived as refined salon pieces with a sophisticated visual effect.
