Candlestick in the Form of a Kneeling Angel ca. 1590-1600 Close collaborator of Giambologna Netherlandish This kneeling angel (part of a pair with 1975.1.1389) may originally have served an ecclesiastical function on an altar in front of a tabernacle. The smooth and angular modeling of the flesh and drapery contrasts with the looser treatment of the wings, hair, and tree trunks.This pair of apparently unique casts are similar in subject to the six angels Giambologna modeled for the tabernacle of the Certosa Galluzzo near Florence, as well as the large candle-bearing angels he designed for the Duomo in Pisa. Despite their relatively static presentation, the facial types, drapery style, and textured tree trunks, also found in other works by Giambologna, connect this pair of candlesticks to his circle..

Cherub second half 18th century Italian, Naples In 1964, Loretta Hines Howard generously presented to the Museum over 140 Neapolitan crèche figures, dating from the second half of the eighteenth century. The varied assortment includes figures from the three traditional scenes of a complete Neapolitan presepio: the Nativity, with angels, shepherds, and sheep; the procession of the three Magi, with their colorful retinue of attendants; and the varied and gay crowd of country and town people thronging the tavern, or inn, of Bethlehem the diversorium mentioned by St. Luke, where on the Holy Night there was no place for Mary and Joseph. Averaging between twelve and fifteen inches in height, according to the position they were to take in perspective in the stage set, the figures are pliable and can be given poses at will, according to their facial expressions. Their bodies are made of tow and wire, their arms and legs are finely carved of wood, and their heads and shoulders are modeled of
