專家說明

This magnificent garniture is centred by an orb clock supported by two putti, emblematic of love, sculpted in marble by Auguste-Louis-Mathurin Moreau. Born in Dijon, the third son of sculptor and painter Jean-Baptiste Moreau, Auguste-Louis-Mathurin (1834-1917) trained with his brother Mathurin. He was awarded a Bronze Medal at the 1900 Paris Exposition universelle and regularly exhibited at the Salon until 1913. His subject matter consists of genre scenes, allegorical figures and romantic subjects. His style was realistic and graceful, and not easily distinguished from the works of other members of the Moreau family in terms of treatment of his subject and material.
