Statue de Charette
Description
Il s’agit d’une représentation de la statue de Dominique Molnecht (sculpteur connu pour ses engagements monarchistes) érigée à Legé en 1826, sous la Restauration (Charles X), pour commémorer le général Charette et le souvenir des guerres de Vendée. Cette statue était associée à une chapelle commémorative. Suite à la Révolution de 1830, cette statue fut enlevée par les orléanistes. Une réduction de cette statue par Emile Gaucher est présentée dans cette salle. L’estampe permet une plus grande diffusion à une époque où la photographie n’existe pas.
