DESCRIPTION
Pair of morillos of large format. Napoleon III period, Louis XV style, third quarter of the nineteenth century.
In bronze.
With patina according to its age.
Measurements: 40 x 40 cm; 63 cm (extension).
Pair of generously proportioned morillos made in bronze, of marked rococo inspiration. Each piece presents a sculptural composition starring infantile figures (putti) seated on vegetal volutes and rockeries of sinuous movement, characteristic of the Louis XV style reinterpreted during the Napoleon III period.
The ornamental richness, the dynamism of the curves and the quality of the modeling are evidence of the eclectic taste of the Second French Empire, which recovered with refinement the styles of the 18th century. Their generous scale and strong sculptural presence make them not only functional fireplace elements, but also authentic decorative pieces of furniture.
