Artistic description:

Exceptional set comprised of five cherub figures created by the prestigious Spanish manufactory Algora, internationally renowned for the quality of its artistic porcelains and the refinement of its finishes.

Each figure represents a child angel in a different pose, interactively engaging with a golden sphere that acts as a compositional element. The scenes convey movement, lightness and a marked playful character, inspired by the classical iconography of putti and cherubs in Baroque and Rococo art.

The ensemble stands out for the extraordinary quality of the anatomical modeling, the delicacy of the facial expressions, the treatment of hair and wings, as well as the flawless white glaze characteristic of Algora. The pink-toned draperies and the gold details add elegance and visual contrast, turning each piece into a small sculptural work.

Although each figure has its own personality, the collection’s design allows them to be exhibited together to form a harmonious and highly decorative composition. It is a lot especially attractive for connoisseurs of Spanish porcelain as well as lovers of decorative sculpture with classical inspiration.
