Antique French Gilt Bronze Cherub Bound to Term Signed E. Drouot 18 inches

Price: $2,500
  • Item No: 75420

Wonderful Antique French Gilt Bronze Sculpture depicting a cherub in chains bound to a smiling term sculpture. The cherub is frowning because he is chained down bound to the term that stands behind him. It is signed on the naturalistic base E. Drouot (Eduord Drouot French sculptor 1849-1945). This theme is some times called Love Bound. The bronze measures 18 inches high, 6-3/4 inches wide at the base and 6-3/4 inches deep at the base. Term figures were seen in 18th century European gardens usually represented with a satyr head resting on a pedestal base. This is a rare sculpture by Drouot, the first model we have had the pleasure to purchase and offer for sale. Drouot has auction records as high as $59,000.00 for a sculpture sold in 2006. He is a very important French sculptor with many auction lot sales over the years.
