Mantel clock Cavalryman

Mantel clock Cavalryman

An impressive mantel clock with a mounted hussar above the dial. Fine metal work and coordinated coloring represent a mounted hussar in an attack in the mountains. Snatching a saber on a rearing horse, he climbs onto a rock. The Hungarian horsemans headdress perhaps indicates and romanticizes the Hungarian revolutionary events of 1848-1849. Despite the static frontality of the ceremonial portrait the composition is organized asymmetrically. The subtle texture of the silvered pendulum and the matching patina of the horse set off the overall sound of gold. Its large ligature of the Renaissance pattern is a sign of the time of Louis Philippe - the end of romanticism. H-44cm. A complete revision of the mechanism was carried out.

PAIR OF CANDELABRA WITH FIGURES OF PARADISE BIRDS RUSSIA, 19TH CENTURY

PAIR OF CANDELABRA WITH FIGURES OF PARADISE BIRDS RUSSIA, 19TH CENTURY

A monumental pair of gilt bronze candelabra, each surmounted by a sculptural figure of a paradise bird with wings outstretched. The composition of each piece is structured around a central baluster richly decorated with relief ornament, rising from a multi-tiered base supported by elegantly curved feet adorned with elaborate vegetal motifs. The upper section is formed as a crown of gracefully scrolling candle arms terminating in drip pans, each embellished with elongated clear crystal pendants that enhance the play of light and impart a distinctly ceremonial character.The birds are rendered with pronounced attention to the plasticity of the plumage and the dynamism of the silhouette, aligning these works with the traditions of Russian Historicism and the romantic interpretation of natural motifs characteristic of 19th century decorative arts. The ornamental vocabulary of the bodies includes stylized foliage, fluting and medallions, typical of high-quality bronze production of the period.Dimensions: Height: 52.5 cm. Width: 32 cm. Depth: 70 cm.Condition: Good condition. The gilding is evenly preserved with a natural age-related patina and minor signs of wear consistent with use. The crystal pendants are largely intact, with possible minimal losses that do not affect the overall visual impression.Provenance: Private European collection.
