Antique Early Staffordshire Figure Medieval King Arthur Rare Vintage Ceramic
Posted by admin On November 12, 2024
Like many pieces from this time there are flaws – one chip as seen to the underneath of the base, a repair between his head and neck which has been done well, and a line in his cloak as well as wear to the pearl like coating. There isn’t much I can find about this piece – he may well be King Arthur and this particular style of figurine is extremely rare.

Antique Sculpture Lion Bronze Whip Circus Statue Figure Decor Art Rare Old 20th
Posted by admin On August 5, 2024
Welcome To My Store. Antique Sculpture Lion Bronze Whip Circus Statue Figure Decor Art Rare Old 20th. Dear Buyers & collectors, We are Pleased to offer you a Gorgeous Unique Antique Beautiful. Very beautiful art work jewelry. Length: 18 cm at the base. Width: 16 cm at the base. Height: 46 cm in total. The Lion Tamer, Rare Art Deco Bronze By Jean Verschneider. An art deco period bronze quite rare on the market and masterfully made by Jean Verschneider, a famous sculptor at that time who was interested in many very varied fields: the circus and fairground arts, mythology and allegories, the realization of automobile mascots. Jean Verschneider was a French sculptor. His work was part of the sculpture event of the 1924 Summer Olympics art competition. And finally when you look closely you find here on this bronze some similarities with the work of Demeter Chiparus. Our bronze represents a lion tamer in stage costume, probably performing a circus act, his particularly studied costume taking up the art deco standards of the time and drawing inspiration largely from classical antiquity. We believe we see a gladiator or Persian warrior straight out of ancient Greece. He is posted in a very virile attitude in contrapposto, his left arm stretched upwards and holding a whip, his right arm almost resting on the roaring lion at his side. Of course no one is careful enough and we see the man’s gaze resting on the lion he dominates. Nevertheless the sculptor was able to restore not only the strength that emanates from the two beings in this circus act but also their necessary communion. A subject which is not easy to render in sculpture without going overboard towards the vulgar or the grotesque. Here the two protagonists are superbly treated and form a beautiful duo the carving details are very fine: take a good look at the man’s face and the details of his stage costume including the whip, but also the lion’s mouth and the way which its fur is treated. The patina is magnificent, a brown patina verging on green with slightly bronze effects which is completed by a very beautiful base in sea green marble whose shades of green and black color combine perfectly with the nuances of the patina of this bronze. A very beautiful art deco bronze, a very interesting subject. 46 cm high by 18 cm long at the base by 16 cm wide. In good condition as on the photos. They look just gorgeous!
