| Description |
Pair of vases made at the Real Fabrica de Buen Retiro. Left: 42.30.18a, b; Right: 42.30.17a, b From the MET's : "The early wares and figures made at Buen Retiro are often difficult to distinguish from objects made at Capodimonte, but the fully Neoclassical character of these vases marks them as Buen Retiro, as the Capodimonte factory was closed before the Neoclassical style took root. The form of the vase is based on an antique model, and the oval medallions on one side are painted with figures from classical antiquity. Further classicizing details include the stylized molded water leaves located above the stem, and the painted garlands that frame the medallions."
