DESCRIPTION
French Art Nouveau school, ca. 1895.
Scyphus" chalice cup, ca. 1895.
Silver-plated pewter.
On wooden base.
Weight: 1,400 g. (total).
Measurements: 27 x 18 x 12 cm (cup). 1 x 11 x 9,5 (stand).
This silver plated pewter piece is a reinterpretation of the classic Roman and Pompeian models. The work is notable for its upper lid, crowned with a figure of the goddess Hebe, servant of the gods and personification of youth. The body of the chalice is profusely ornamented in relief with vines, leaves and fruits, fusing Greco-Roman iconography with the organic exuberance of Art Nouveau. It rests on an elegant wooden base that enhances its sculptural bearing.
