Neoclassical Patinated and Gilt-Bronze Gueridon with a Marble Top, circa 1890
About the Item
A fine neoclassical patinated and gilt bronze gueridon with a rouge griotte marble top, attributed to Barbedienne and Ferdinand Levillain.
French, circa 1890.
This striking gueridon has a circular inset rouge griotte marble top within a gilt bronze egg and dart border. The top is supported on three patinated bronze monopodia supports with stylised lions heads and paws and united by gilt bronze ‘X’ - form cross stretchers.
The design for a plateau or stand, with comparative stylised monopodia supports, by Ferdinand Levillain and cast by Barbedienne, was illustrated in the 1889 Gazette des Beaux-Arts and reproduced by Jonathan Meyer in his book Great Exhibitions.
Ferdinand Levillain
Ferdinand Levillain (1837-1905) had his debut at the Paris Salon in 1861 and won recognition through the 1860’s and 1870’s for his work with the highly respected fondeur Barbedienne. In 1878 he ceased his collaboration with Barbedienne and triumphed alone at the Exposition Universelle, where he won a Gold Medal.
Barbedienne
Ferdinand Barbedienne (1810-1892) was the inspiration and driving force behind one of the most important French art foundries. He pioneered the use of mounts and, more commonly, bronze sculpture including figures and animals. Barbedienne produced catalogues of bronze reproductions of Greek and Roman classical sculpture and experimented with champlevé and cloisonné enamels during the third quarter of the century.
