Cupid in bronze and marble base, according to models by August Moreau. The figure of the god of love, Cupid, stands on a round base. The bronze sculpture, with the iconographic attributes corresponding to this figure from classical mythology, was made based on models by August Moreau (1834-1917). This French sculptor studied at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris and exhibited for the first time in 1861, achieving great success at a very early age for his works, characterized by their great finesse and by showing very intricate designs and postures.

Monk's armchair. Wood, leather. Spain, 16th and 18th centuries. Armchair with arms and high backrest of the type known as “friar’s chair”, which has leather with studs on the seat and upper part of the backrest, low, cut-out low-profile chambranes joining the front and back legs and middle chambranes or side rails (the front one carved with a relief of architectural motifs) joining the two front and two back legs, and simple armrests. In this case, it should be noted that the chambrane, due to the relief, would be from the 18th century. The friar’s chair, initially of Italian origin, became one of the most common pieces of Spanish furniture since its introduction in the 16th century, being characteristic of this and the 17th century and being recovered again in the historicist movement of the 19th century. Being such a deep-rooted tradition in Spain, this type of model was never stopped being created.

“Northern European landscape with ruins”, 17th century style. Oil on panel. Early 20th century. Rural landscape with a watercourse, a stone bridge and a ruined house, set among trees, enlivened by the presence of a person and with no apparent theme, inspired by Baroque works from Northern Europe. Given their popularity at the time, this type of painting was revived from the 19th century onwards, inspired by important Baroque works from both the Flemish and Dutch schools, having already moved beyond the detail of almost all 16th century landscapes of presenting a historical or biblical subject (which was often downplayed). Between the end of the 16th century and the beginning of the 17th century, landscape painting gained great popularity in the Netherlands, with masters specialising in the genre proliferating.
