Emile N. Carlier (French, 1849-1927) The artist carved part of the facade of the Sorbonne and received a gold medal in 1889. This small cast bronze depicts the figure of a miner with a cart. The cast signature on base reads: "Carlier". Presently, it sits atop a custom limestone base, and has been mounted as a table lamp. It is great to have a piece as mundane as a lamp take on new life as a piece of art. Please note that our lamps do not include shades unless otherwise indicated.
