Auguste Moreau (1834-1917) was a French sculptor born in Dijon. Moreau, the third youngest son of painter and sculptor Jean-Baptiste Moreau, started making sculptures with his brothers Mathurin and Hippolyte. Sculptures by Auguste Moreau are still highly valued today and may be found in numerous significant public spaces, galleries, and collectors all around the world. A delightful illustration of Moreau's pastoral style, this vase showcases the joy of the cherub perched on the vase's lip.
