Lumiere
Henri Picard (French, 1831–1864),
“Candelabra,” late 19th Century
Bronze, porphyry, and ormolu
Gift of Arthur I. Appleton.
"I certainly stole the color palette from the Appleton’s candelabra! The blacks and golds make a striking color combination in contrast with the browns, reds, and blues of the rest of the Beast’s castle. If you look closely at the detail on the pedestal and arms, you can see that I mirrored these patterns in the hands and leg covers for my interpretation of Lumiere." (Eryn Brooks Brewer)
