"Bronze Of Bacchus Child, By E. Pasteur - Nineteenth"
Bronze with brown patina by the Parisian sculptor Édouard Pasteur, member of the French Artists since 1805, representing Bacchus in childhood. In the guise of a young child with a chubby body, reminiscent of the putti of the Italian Renaissance, the divinity of the Vine, wine and festivities is standing, holding an empty cup in his left hand. His precarious balance seems to be ensured by his right hand, holding on to a vine boletus. A crown of bunches of grapes and foliage surrounds his forehead and his curly hair, usual attributes of the son of Jupiter. Laughing and playful, the young god enjoys the pleasures of life. You will inevitably be seduced by the freshness and lightness of this bicentenary bronze with mythological inspirations. ******** Period: 19th century Very good condition.
