A monumental antique Italian Neo-classical pair of bronze 'Libertas' figural torcheres set on shaped marble column bases by Ferdinando De Luca, signed on the bases, circa 1910 in date. The pair of patinated green and caramel bronze goddesses are beautifully styled in the neoclassical form representing liberty, each wearing a Roman stola gown and holding a glazed torch aloft. They are raised on white marble columns beautifully accented with green serpentine marble terminating in hexagonal bases. The goddesses represent Liberty, derived from Libertas, the goddess of freedom, widely worshipped in ancient Rome, especially among emancipated slaves. Add a classical element to your home with these magnificent large bronze torcheres. F. De Luca refers to Ferdinando De Luca, a notable Italian sculptor from the late 19th and 20th centuries, known for his exquisite cast bronze sculptures blending classical ideals with Art Nouveau and Art Deco styles, often featuring dynamic figures, nymphs, and flapper-style women on marble bases. His work is characterized by fluid lines, harmonious compositions, and rich patinas, representing a significant balance between traditional craftsmanship and modern aesthetics.
