Three Gilded Bronze Altar Crosses, 19th Century

Three Gilded Bronze Altar Crosses, 19th Century. Set of three finely chiselled gilded bronze altar crosses, dating from the 19th century. Each features a richly ornamented decoration inspired by the neo-Gothic and neo-Baroque repertoire, with Christ on the cross, kneeling cherubs in adoration, and abundant floral and religious motifs. The turned bases, in various shapes, testify to high-quality casting and chiselling work. The gilding, still very bright, highlights the finesse of the sculpted details: rays of glory, scrolls, foliage, cherubs, and liturgical ornaments. These three crosses form a harmonious decorative ensemble that can be displayed in a collection of sacred art, on a private altar, or as decorative elements in a characterful interior. In very good condition with a lovely patina of use. Period: 19th century. Material: gilded bronze. Style: Neo-Gothic / Religious art. Dimensions: Height: approximately 25 to 35 cm. A charming collection of devotional objects, witnesses to the craftsmanship of the religious goldsmith workshops of the 19th century.
