France, 19th century

Status:
Excellent condition.

Cast iron torchere lamp representing a Nubian girl in the Napoleon III style from the 19th century. The child standing contrapposto holds the torch above her head. She is dressed in Egyptian style clothing with a pleated loincloth, wears a variation of the nemes or pharaoh headcloth of ancient Egypt and slave bracelets on her arms and ankles. This sculpture is characteristic of the Napoleon III period’s fascination for the past, which can be freely reinterpreted on more and more precise archeological findings.
