Pair of Opaline Vases, Late 19th Century

This pair of opaline baluster vases bears witness to the revival of taste for the Louis XV style at the late 19th century. Nostalgia for an idealized time, the reign of Louis the Beloved is making a strong comeback with a rococo style revisited to modern tastes and above all gallant and romantic scenes which, as here, put nature back at the heart of the house. In this time of the Industrial Revolution, the appeal of rural landscapes is felt everywhere. Boat trip or return from hunting, everything is good to enjoy the fresh air of the countryside! The subjects of these vases in very good condition illustrate this perfectly. Signed B under the base.
