Design for the base of a crucifix
This is a design for the base of a crucifix intended to adorn an altar, flanked by six candlesticks of the same model. It is in the early neo-classical style, a reaction against frivolous rococo. Many motifs are also found on the altar set of gilt bronze made in 1760 for Notre Dame cathedral in Paris by the famous Philippe Caffieri.
