"Drunken Youth, " Male Nude Sculpture with Dark, Rich Glazes by Kai Nielsen
By Kai Nielsen
Located in Philadelphia, PA
This sensuous ceramic piece depicts a beautifully sculpted nude figure embracing an exaggerated grape cluster, sculpted by Kai Nielsen for Bing & Grondahl in Copenhagen. While all examples of this piece are rare, the glazes here are extremely unusual, emphasizing a dark ebony color contrasting with a rich purple for the grapes. Officially noted as a "drunken young man," this piece was one of a series depicting wine-lovers issued in 1912, which also included a Bacchus on a donkey, a satyr boy with grapes, and a satyr paired with a woman. Nielsen was a noted sculptor in Denmark, active in the early 20th century, who was heavily influenced by Rodin and Maillol and dealt often with mythological subjects. His bronzes and ceramic pieces have been auctioned by dealers in Copenhagen...

Njal, Unique Blue Glass & Oak Unique Sculpture by Backhaus & Brown and Egeværk
By Backhaus & Brown and EgevÆrk
Located in London, GB
'Njal' from the Glasskibe Collection is a unique glass and oak sculpture by the Danish and British artists, Backhaus & Brown and Egeværk.
The title explained by the artists;
"Njal is a Viking boy’s name that means giant. Viking names were often given special characteristics and bestowed strength and protection in life. We know the names of the Vikings from runic inscriptions and place names, among other things. Many of these names are specific to the Nordic countries".
The Danish town of Hundested is steeped in maritime history and richly from the Viking Age. It is the majestic imagery of the Viking ships passing that has inspired two of the harbour’s contemporary craft companies; cabinetmakers Egeværk and glass artists Backhaus & Brown. These two award-winning workshops have combined their masterful crafts in an innovative collaboration; namely a series of sculptures named ”Glasskibe” – Viking ships in hand-blown glass and carved oak.
Artworks from this collection have been sold to many private collectors but have also been purchased for the Vikingskipshuset, the Viking Ship Museum in Oslo and more recently, shown at the Danish Pavilion during the 2016 Olympics in Rio.
A unique collaboration in the truest sense, drawing on the skills of two crafts, based in two workshops and from two Nationalities, British and Danish.
