Finely chiseled golden bronze pendulum, decorated with a young pious woman in contemplation. The elegant young lady is dressed in a simple but refined outfit. She is wearing a lace hat that hides her long hair held in a sober bun. Her pretty face raised towards the sky, she gently puts her right hand on her heart, as touched by grace. She is leaning on a hose decorated with an angel and surmounted by a religious alcove surrounding the statue of a virgin and child. The inscription "Ave Maria" is present and underlines the religious character of the scene.
Attached to the young woman an old-fashioned old man implies that she is a musician and that it may be a representation of Sainte-Cécile, the patron of music in Christianity.
This pendulum has a white enamel dial accompanied by Roman numerals.
The whole rests on a large meticulously worked base, decorated with shells, acanthus leaves, foliage, scrolls, friezes and flowers on a striated background.
This gilded bronze pendulum Napoleon III will delight you with its finesse, its charisma and its brightness.
