Revisiting the antique votive statues and the grotesques of the Renaissance , their aesthetics testify to an attraction for the ancient mysteries. The forehead of the two caryatids is girded with a diadem, and their elongated bust is gradually transformed into baskets of flowers and fruits, like allegories of the nourishing nature. The slender feet are adorned with flowers and acanthus leaves.

Mathurin Moreau for the Val d’Osne Foundry, The Four Elements, between 1849 and 1879

The son and brother of sculptors, Mathurin Moreau (Dijon, 1822-Paris, 1912) is one of the most reknown sculptors in the 19th century. He won the Second Prix de Rome at the age of 21. He worked for the Val d’Osne art foundry between 1849 and 1879. He won numerous prizes at the Salons and at the Universal Exhibitions; in 1897, he was awarded a medal of honour at the Salon. The sculptor was also a committed public figure: he published an essay on poverty in 1851 and was elected mayor of the 19th arrondissement in Paris in 1878. He created the Four Elements as part of his collaboration with the Val d’Osne art foundry at the end of the 19th century. The elements are personified by putti endowed with various attributes and accompanied by animals or objects echoing the element they evoke. Air, with its cheeks puffed out, blows into a foghorn; it sits on the body of a lamb with its eyes closed. Water is crowned with a reed and holds a long stick; the putto is riding a large sea turtle. Fire is holding a lighted lamp. He places his foot on a salamander, an animal reputed to be able to pass through flames without damage, or even to be engendered by fire. Lastly, Earth is crowned with a pampre and holds a bunch of grapes in one hand and a sheaf of wheat in the other. She is placing her foot on a wineskin. The artist’s eye for detail is visible in the different treatment of each putto’s hair. While Earth’s hair is natural, Air’s is made up of swirling curls and pulled back as if by a strong wind; Water's hair is soggy and almost similar to seaweed, while Fire’s imitates flames. Our set appears in the catalogue of the Société anonyme des grands fourneaux et fonderies du Val d’Osne. In 1878, a Four Elements fountain was erected in Valence, based on a model similar to the one in the foundry’s catalogue: the four statues in the lower basin are identical to ours.

Louis XVI style fireplace with half Corinthian column, in half statuary marble

Fireplace crafted in Carrara marble, whose subtly nuanced white tone is interspersed with fine grey veining, creating a delicate interplay of texture and colour. This marble, valued for its tight grain and quality of finish, lends the whole piece a luminous and harmonious appearance. The rectangular mantel shelf, with slightly softened edges, rests above a straight entablature. The latter is distinguished by a central frieze finely carved with a laurel garland in relief, a decoration evoking the classical themes of victory and honour frequently found in the Louis XVI style. The side jambs are formed by engaged half-columns, carefully proportioned to structure the façade. Each smooth shaft is topped with a Corinthian capital, recognisable by its finely detailed acanthus leaves and delicately carved volutes. The carving of the capitals is notable for the depth of its relief and the crispness of its lines, enhancing the architectural elegance of the whole. Moulded bases provide a harmonious transition to the plinth while emphasising the verticality of the composition. The cast iron interior features ornamental decoration characteristic of the 19th century: in the centre, a large radiating shell serves as the main motif, surrounded by scrolls and stylised foliage. This decoration, both functional and ornamental, contributes to the visual identity of the hearth while protecting the inner masonry.
