Add Some Classic French Style To Your Garden With These Statues!

Sunday, July 18, 2010 by Jennifer Quigley
French gardens are historically held as one of the most beautiful themed environments!

French gardens were built by  the aristocracy and royalty to overwhelm and impress their visitors.  The grounds were usually level and were laid out in geometrical patterns known as parterres. The parterres were usually lined with boxwood, lavender, or rosemary and bedding plants or stones were used to provide color and contrast.  

Fountains and Garden Statuary were used as accents to improve the classic atmosphere of the garden!  Browse through Design Toscano's large collection of French Decor Statues to achieve a stylish and French-themed garden.

A best-selling item of ours, the Empress Josephine's Dancer Sculpture, by artist Antonio Canova, is one of the most coveted images of the Neoclassical era.  
 
The Outdoor Garden Sculpture features a flaunting and timeless female figure of elegance. The piece was originally created for Empress Josephine by artist Canova, the premiere Italian sculptor of his day.

Our Greco-Roman beauty is showcased in quality designer resin, with a rich, faux stone finish perfect for spa bath or breathtaking garden display.

The Spring Awakening Garden Statue is another best-seller, by revered sculptor Auguste Moreau, who debuted in the 1861 Salon de Paris. 

Add timeless French style to your collection for sculptures for outside with this classic sculpt that embodies the stirring of the seasons as a breathtakingly beautiful maiden sheds the heaviness of winter to step into the elemental essence of spring. This grand-scale, three-foot-tall piece is cast in quality designer resin with an antique stone finish for home or garden.
