Late 19th century H : 41.5 cm (one restoration to the neck, chips to the base) NOTE: Considered one of the most important bronze artists of the late 18th and early 19th centuries, Claude Galle set the standard for neoclassical bronze. He worked with famous founders such as Antoine André Ravrio and Jean Hauré. He took part in the creation of bronzes for the Crown's furniture. Under the Consulate, he was Philippe Thomire's main competitor. Under the Empire, he supplied the imperial furniture storehouse, furnishing the châteaux of Compiègne and Fontainebleau. This pair of ewers is a fine illustration of the decorative repertoire used by the bronzemaker in the early Empire.
