Two Torchères 1692

"Two Torchères" is an etching by the Spanish artist Juan Dolivar, created in 1692, the year of his death. The print depicts two elaborate designs for torchères, or candelabra, which are richly adorned with figures, foliate scrolls, and intricate details. The design on the left is more complex, featuring a figure seated atop the base, while the design on the right shows a more classically inspired base, with a winged figure standing on the central shaft. This etching is an example of Dolivar's decorative style, showcasing the intricate and ornate designs that were popular in the late 17th century.
