Candelabrum (one of a pair). Culture: French, Paris. Dimensions: Overall (confirmed): 14 3/4 x 10 1/2 x 10 1/2 in., 80.167oz. (37.5 x 26.7 x 26.7 cm, 2272.7g). Maker: Robert Joseph Auguste (French, 1723-1805, master 1757). Date: 1767-68.Robert-Joseph Auguste was one of the leading Parisian silversmiths working in the Neoclassical style in the latter half of the eighteenth century. In 1778, he received the title of Silversmith to the King, and in 1784 was granted lodgings in the Louvre, a privilege bestowed upon only the most favored craftsmen. He gained an international clientele, providing silver to the courts of Portugal, Denmark, Russia, Sweden, and England.These candelabra (see also 48.187.390a, b) date to an early point in Auguste's career, and they reflect a robust and architectural Neoclassicism in their style. The Neoclassicism of the last two decades of the eighteenth century was often characterized by a highly refined and restrained elegance, with spare decoration. The emer

Curb Bit. Culture: German. Dimensions: H. 13 1/2 in. (34.3 cm); W. 6 in. (15.2 cm); Wt. 1 lb. 12 oz. (793.8 g). Date: early 17th century.This was considered as a gentle bit for starting young horses with the curb bit (bit with a leverage effect). Indeed, according to contemporary equestrian manuals, the long straight shanks (the levers on the sides of the bit to which the reins were attached) and the jointed mouthpiece with simple canons made for the most gentle combination in a curb bit. If the long shanks look impressive, their length in fact reduces their reaction time and would actually have been blocked at some point by the horse's chest. Curb bits were also at this time used with a very light hand, the well-trained horses responding by anticipation to the slightest move of the reins. The elegant pierced decoration is typical of East German spur maker's workshops during the 16th and 17th centuries. Despite their name, spur makers made not only making spurs, but also small eques

Three-branch wall light (one of a pair) (bras de lumière) ca. 1785 French, Paris Functional and exceedingly decorative bronzes dameublement, the so-called furnishing bronzes - wall lights, candelabra, and other types of lighting, firedogs, hearth furnishings, and clocks - were an important aspect of the eighteenth-century décor. Well-known artists and sculptors designed them closely following the latest styles. An elaborate guild system regulated the process of their creation and maintained high standards of craftsmanship. Consisting of many different steps, the manufacture of gilt-bronze objects was principally in the hands of the bronze workers, who were divided in eighteenth-century France in two guilds: that of the fondeurs-ciseleurs, or casters and chasers, and that of the ciseleurs-doreurs, or chasers and gilders.These wall lights, consisting of a set of six [see also 1979.172.11-.14, are made of chased and gilded bronze and epitomize the neo-classical style prevalent at the ti

The Crucifixion, c. 1730. Du Paquier Porcelain Manufactory (Austrian, active 1719-1864). Porcelain, ebonized wood cross with gilt bronze mounts; overall: 100 x 36.5 cm (39 3/8 x 14 3/8 in.). The second oldest European porcelain factory after that at Meissen (in Germany) was set up in Vienna in 1716. During its early years, the Vienna factory was privately owned by a court official, Claudius Innocentius Du Paquier, and its early wares-made before 1744-carry his name. They are characterized by energetic shapes, strong colors, and the use of gold for surface decoration. This is the only Du Paquier crucifix known today. The figure of Christ closely resembles the work of Vienna's most famous sculptor, Georg Raphael Donner (1693-1741), and was probably created by one of his followers especially to be used on this crucifix. The anatomical accuracy and precise detail of the figure, along with the abundance of gold decoration, indicate that the piece was probably a special commission intended

Pendant in the Shape of an Uraeus 2030-1650 B.C. Middle Kingdom The uraeus was a royal symbol of protection, as the representation of a rearing cobra could magically spit fire at the enemies of Egypt from its perch on the king's forehead. During the late Old Kingdom, as private people became identified with Osiris and thus with the king after death, some royal iconography, including the uraeus, was adapted for use by the elite. During the Middle Kingdom, the period from which this object dates, uraei are found in funerary contexts, seen most often in object friezes on rectangular coffins or gracing the foreheads of masks and anthropoid coffins.This particular uraeus, made in an elegant filigreed style, is one of a handful of similar pieces. Here the head is missing, as is the lower part. Based on other examples, this might have taken the shape of a stylized basket, the hieroglyph for neb, meaning "lord," or "lady." The uraeus represented the tutelary goddess of Lower Egypt (the north),

Pair of candlestands ca. 1710 French, Paris The inventory of the Palace of Versailles during the reign of Louis XIV recorded over four hundred stands of the gueridon type. Depending on their height, they supported platters of foods and candle stands or, if more than five foot tall, decorative vases or candelabra. The early forms of such stands were probably based on the human figure supporting a tray. By the late 17th century, the gueridon was primarily a candle stand. The stem occasionally included human figures but more commonly consisted of non-naturalistic elements with stylized ornamental carving. This kind of ornament is epitomized in the Museums pair of candle stands, dated to about 1710. The upper stems are formed by three graceful freestanding scrolls carved with trailing flowers while grapevines bind three scrolls to the lower part of the stand. The bases were originally probably supported on short bun or paw-shaped feet.. Pair of candlestands 189467 French, Pair of candles
