- 'The Fisher Boy', Large Bronze, Medal of Honor, Paris Universal Exposition, 1900Located in Santa Cruz, CAA substantial lost wax bronze, cast after the original model by Eugène-Nicolas-Clément, Comte d''Astanière (French, 1841-1918). One of the larger-size castings in overall good condition and showing excellent patination. (N.B. Without fishing rod) Eugene, the Comte d'Astaniere, was primarily known in his youth as a courageous and highly-decorated cavalry officer who distinguished himself repeatedly in combat, including against the Germans in the Franco-Prussian war of 1870, in which campaign he was severely wounded and almost died. During his prolonged recuperation, he turned his attention to art and, in particular, to sculpting. He studied intensively with Jean Alexandre Joseph Falguière (1831-1900) , the preeminent French sculptor of the day who would become his life-long friend and artistic mentor. D'Astaniere quickly mastered the art of sculpture and was recognized by the Salon of 1882 with a Gold Medal for his first exhibited work. From that time forward, he accumulated numerous diplomas, medals and juried awards for his work. At the Salon, he received frequent medals and was soon elected to membership of the Jury. Count d'Astaniere exhibited 'The Juggler,' a large marble, at the Salon of 1887, then sent a bronze entitled 'Acrobat' to the Salon of 1889. At the Universal Exhibition in Paris in 1889, he received a bronze medal for the presentation of 'The Angler'. He exhibited in Moscow in 1891, at the 1893 Universal Exposition in Chicago receiving awards at both. He exhibited a marble entitled 'The White Monk' at the Salon of 1898 and obtained a medal of honor...Category

- 'Woman Standing', Modernist Sculpture, San Francisco Bay Area, de Young MuseumBy Wedo GeorgettiLocated in Santa Cruz, CAInscribed on base, 'W.G.' for Wedo Georgetti (American, 1911-2005) and created circa 1950. Acquired directly from the artist and accompanied by certificate of authenticity. Born in Italy, this California Post-Impressionist came to the United States at the age of one. Georgetti first worked as a merchant seaman to support his art studies and traveled all over the world accumulating sketches, many of which he later worked up into paintings. He made frequent visits to France, where he was influenced by the Post-Impressionists and, particularly, by the Nabis. An innovative theorist, Georgetti was the originator of the style known as California Fauvism. He exhibited widely and with success, both at exhibitions and at one-man shows (Oakland Art Gallery, 1942-44; Society of American Graphic Artists, NYC, 1944; Maxwell Galleries, 1940’s; de Young Museum...Category

- The Three MagiLocated in New York, NYProvenance: Private Collection, Spain. Known as Peruvian alabaster for its translucency and workability, Piedra de Huamanga is a highly prized material from the province of Ayacucho in Peru. In the 17th and 18th centuries, local craftsman in the town of Huamanga began to specialize in the production of small-scale, polychrome religious sculptures made from this distinctive stone. Huamanga sculptures are among the most accomplished examples of carving from the Spanish Americas, where polychrome wood sculpture was a far more common sculptural medium. These works, which were created as independent sculptures or as sculptural groups—such as our three Magi—were intended for ecclesiastical as well as domestics settings. Our three figures likely formed part of a larger Nativity group—a New World variant of the tradition of the Neapolitan Crèche...Category
