‡A Napoleon III champlevé enamel and gilt bronze candlestick in the Neo-Grec taste, the design by Ferdinand Barbedienne and Louis-Constant Sévin, circa 1870-1875, the urn socket atop four Bacchic masks, with Grecian-inspired polychrome enamel foliate decoration across the stem, the base with four panther headed bipodial legs interspersed with anthemia, 31.5 cm high, the base 13.5 wide CATALOGUE NOTES: CATALOGUE NOTES: This model was exhibited both at the 1871 Annual International Exhibition in London and the 1876 Centennial Exhibition in Philadelphia. In both cases, the candlestick was illustrated in the edited 'highlights' catalogues. The masks and crested feline feet give the piece a severe, classical allure. That this sense of gravitas was also perceived by 19th century exhibition goers is shown by the description in the 1876 catalogue, which notes that the idea of strength, solidity and weight is conveyed by the couchant lions and the square pillar. Though the piece is of relatively clean and simple form, its considerable success is demonstrated by the fact that after being exhibited in '71, the candlestick was sold by other retailers and was even part of France's collective exhibited when it next appeared on the world stage five years later.A pair of this model was sold at Sotheby's New York, 9 June 2017 ADDITIONAL LITERATURE: Smith, Walter (ed.)
