Antique Bronze Cherub Sculptures
These are two charming 10” bronze spelter cherub figures, each depicting a different artistic pursuit. One cherub is portrayed as a sculptor, holding a chisel and mallet, while the other is an artist, holding a palette and brush. The figures are mounted on circular bases, adding to their classic aesthetic. These sculptures likely date to the late 19th or early 20th century, reflecting the popular Victorian and Edwardian fascination with classical motifs and allegorical representations.
Condition and Collectibility
These sculptures exhibit signs of age and patina, consistent with their antique status. There may be minor wear to the bronze finish and bases, but the figures remain structurally sound and visually appealing. Collectors will appreciate the detailed craftsmanship and the charming depiction of artistic endeavour. These sculptures would make a delightful addition to any collection of antique bronzes or figurative sculptures, and would serve as a unique and eye-catching decorative piece.
