Twee putti, tondo 1800 - 1900

This terracotta roundel, or tondo, by Eugène Lacomblé features two putti, or cherubs, in a playful scene. The cherubs are sculpted in high relief, their rounded forms emphasizing their youthful innocence. The tondo's circular format, a popular choice for Renaissance and Baroque art, provides a harmonious frame for this charming and intimate depiction. The work, dating from 1800 to 1900, is a testament to Lacomblé's skill in capturing the spirit of childhood. This piece demonstrates the artist's talent for rendering realistic figures within a decorative format, making it a delightful example of 19th-century French sculpture.
