MARKINGS
Noted for his detailed and colorful work, Bergman was signing his creations with either a "B" in an urn-shaped cartouche, or "Nam Greb" - for "Bergman" in reverse (these marks used to disguise his identity on the erotic works). They are also often inscribed ‘Geschutzt’, which refers to the model/design being ‘registered’ or copyrighted; or not marked at all, especially if the pieces are miniatures.
ABOUT ARTIST
Franz Xavier Bergmann (Austrian, 1861-1936) was the owner of a Viennese foundry who produced numerous patinated and cold-painted bronze, cold painted bronze refers to pieces cast in Vienna and then decorated in several layers with so-called dust paint; oriental, erotic and animal figures, the latter often humanized or whimsical and often humorous objet d'art. The color was not fired hence "cold painted". Mainly women working at home, a typical cottage industry, carried out the painting. The expertise for the mix of this kind of paint has been lost since.
