Velleda
myminifactory
Laurent Marqueste (1848-1920) showcased Velleda at the 1877 Salon, drawing inspiration from Chateaubriand's Martyrs (1809). The Germanic prophetess Velleda defied her own people to rally part of Gaul against Rome, where she ultimately met a captive fate. A testament to the era's fascination with Celtic themes and national subject matter, this sculpture presents an idealized feminine form that embodies the period's romantic ideals. Cupid in the Salon Rouge (RA 1044) demonstrates Marqueste's dedication to Antique statuary once more. In Velleda, a strong young woman emerges, exuding both haughty reserve and introspective calm, her mouth set in a determined line. Smooth modelling and harmonious contours convey an unattainable beauty that captivates the viewer.
