A pair of 19th-century style gilt bronze candelabrum, each with four lights, on a vase shape stems with square bases mounted with masks, on moulded square feet, 40 cm highThe gilding is still rich and lustrous and structurally the candelabrum are sound if a little crooked. The branches are fitted to the front and sides but none to the rear as these would have been made to sit either side of a clock on a mantle piece. The components would be generic and this model would have also been produced as a four branch table candelabras and so a hole is seen on the reverse. See the extra images for clarification.

Joan Miro (Spanish (Catalan), 1893-1983). Color lithograph on paper titled "Le delire du couturier - bleu, rouge, vert (Fashion Frenzy - Blue, Red, Green)" depicting abstracted shapes in white against a three-toned gradient background, 1969. Pencil signed along the lower right; numbered 7/30 along the lower left.Spanish artist Joan Miro was one of modern art's pioneers. His search for non-objectivity led him to Fauvism, Surrealism, and Cubism, as he refused to restrict his work to one style or medium. Miro geared all of his work toward breaking with the traditional, whether in his paintings, ceramic pieces, bronze sculptures, or prints. One hallmark of Miro's paintings is the mixing of precisely rendered imaginary objects along with commonplace objects. His prints were, like his paintings, experiments in breaking the conventions of art. While many of his works had a common theme, Miro refused to limit himself in his representation of images. Rather than creating art that totally abstracted reality, Miro pointed the way toward non-representational works. Many artists can trace their inspiration back to Joan Miro paintings.Sight; height: 47 in x width: 31 1/2 in. Framed; height: 57 1/4 in x width: 41 1/2 in.

In the wake of WWI, there emerged a desire to erect commemorative statues which symbolised the trauma of war and the tragic loss of life. Bayes' workshop was at the forefront of the public's stimulation of a war memorial movement, representing one of the greatest examples of national patronage of sculpture. Exhibitions were held at the Victoria & Albert Museum and Royal Academy to aid local communities and regions in their choice of sculptors, materials and subject matter. Bayes’ emotive work, Destiny, was shown at the Royal Academy in 1916, and subsequently used as the centrepiece for the Ramsgate War Memorial. This bronze statuette of this model was produced later in 1918.
