Renaissance More Furniture and Collectibles
RENAISSANCE STYLE
Spanning an era of cultural rebirth in Europe that harkened back to antiquity, the Renaissance was a time of change in design. From the late 1400s to the early 1600s, Rome, Venice and Florence emerged as artistic centers through the expansion of global trade and a humanist belief in the arts being central to society. Antique Renaissance furniture was ornately carved from sturdy woods like walnut, its details standing out against the tapestries and stained glass adorning the walls.
Renaissance chests, which were frequently commissioned for marriages, were often decorated with gilding or painted elements. Those that were known as cassoni were crafted in shapes based on classical sarcophagi. As opposed to the medieval era, when furniture was pared down to the necessities, a wide range of Renaissance chairs, tables and cabinets were created for the home, and the designs regularly referenced ancient Rome.
Large torchères of the Renaissance era that were used as floor lamps were inspired by classical candelabras, while marble surfaces evoked frescoes. The inlaid boxes being imported from the Middle East informed the intarsia technique, which involved varying hues of wood in mosaic-like patterns, such as those by architect Giuliano da Maiano in the Florence Cathedral.
Tapestry-woven cushion covers accented the variety of Renaissance seating — from conversation to study chairs — while bookcases for secular use reflected the migration of culture and knowledge from the church into the home. The aesthetics of the Italian Renaissance later spread to France through the publishing of work by renowned designers, including Hugues Sambin and Jacques Androuet du Cerceau. Centuries later, the 19th-century Renaissance Revival would see a return to this influential style.

17th Century Carved Wooden Saint Pope Sculpture, Antique Religious Art
Located in NICE, FR
This 17th-century wooden sculpture depicts a Saint Pope. Standing with a commanding presence, the figure wears the papal tiara and a richly draped robe, both remnants of its original polychrome still subtly visible in warm, aged tones of red and ochre. The sculpture radiates solemnity, capturing the spiritual gravitas.
Carved from wood the Pope’s face is stern yet compassionate, framed by the traditional papal crown. His arms are raised in a once-blessing gesture—though the hands have been lost over time, the posture still conveys benediction.
The stylized drapery and vertical form suggest it may have once adorned a church altar or devotional niche.
The wear and patina accumulated over centuries only add to its sacred aura and historical significance.
This Saint Pope sculpture is ideal for collectors of religious art, baroque devotional objects, or antique European sculpture.
