Superb Bronze Figural Baby Boy Child Vase Auguste Moreau Sculpture, 19th C, 5"
Auguste Moreau (1834-1917) was a french sculptor. Born February 22, 1834, Auguste is the son of the sculptor Jean-Baptiste Moreau. His sculptors are mostly bronze, and shown at fine art museums such as the Museum of Troyes and the Museum of Fine Arts of Bordeaux.
Made by the noted French sculptor Auguste Moreau, this elegant and ornate bronze vase bears his signature. A regular exhibitor at the world famous Salon in Paris; Moreau's work is realistic and graceful: portraying pastoral genre scenes. He studied under Mathurin Moreau. In 1861, Auguste made his debut at the Salon where he would exhibit regularly until 1913. His subjects were primarily young maidens sensuously clad in swirling diaphanous dress and usually decorated with flowers and birds or allegorical and genre scenes incorporating cupids and young children. His style was realistic and graceful, revealing his relation to the other members of the Moreau family. His compositions encapsulate a feeling of innocence while incorporating an air of mischievous fun. La Maison Raingo Frères, founded in 1813, was located in 1830 at 8 rue de Touraine in Paris. First recognized as clock makers, the four Raingo Brothers added art and furniture bronzes in their catalogs in 1841. In 1860, this “Maison”, furnished bronzes for Napoleon III and Eugenia Empress, and possessed numerous collection pieces. Their early works were models from the antique and they then published works by living artists. The most famous were Pradier, Carrier-Belleuse and Auguste Moreau. August Moreau's work today is in various world renowned art museums across the country. Truly a piece of history!
This superb bronze vase is adorned with beautiful detail work; depicting a young child sitting playfully near a pond, surrounded by flowers and a small dragonfly. A beautiful work of art.
