August Moreau Art Deco /Art Nouveau Table Lamp. Art Nouveau Table Lamp WORKING – This is an antique bronze table lamp signed Auguste Moreau. The piece depicts a lovely woman dressed in a beautiful flowing dress, with flowers surrounding her. This lamp is very large with three flower vine intwined lamps with lovely amber shades. Base is a very detailed bed of flowers. Has a lovely patina. She does have some chipping on her arm that adds to vintage piece. Easy fix I believe. This is truly a magnificent piece that would be a focal point to any room. Moreau was born in Paris in 1834, the youngest son of sculptor and painter Jean-Baptiste Moreau. He studied with his father and also under Augustin Drumont and Jean Thomas. In 1861, Auguste made his debut at the Salon where he would exhibit regularly until 1913. His subjects were primarily young maidens sensuously clad in swirling dress and usually decorated with flowers and birds or allegorical and genre scenes incorporating cupids and young children. His style was realistic and graceful, and his works encapsulate a feeling of innocence whilst incorporating an air of mischievous game.
