Mint Condition Heavy Bronze Boxer / Price Fighter Sculpture by Jef Lambeaux
By Jef Lambeaux
Located in Lisse, NL
Powerful bronze sculpture of an athletic and ripped fighter.
This sizable and heavy work of art is as beautiful as the day it was handcrafted. Belgian sculptor Jef Lambeaux (1852-1908) had a penchant for capturing the human physique in motion, with sports and erotic scenes as his favourite subject matters. Since he grew up in the second half of the 19th century, he may very well have seen actual price fighters going at each other in boxing matches. This powerful bronze male boxer in full action is just about to launch an inside right whilst protecting his own head with his left arm and right shoulder. His square jaw line and rugged facial features give us the impression that he is as hard they come. The incredibly well developed muscles in his back and legs confirm that notion as well. The stunning patina accentuates the muscular physique of this bronze fighter and he looks marvelous from all angles. Image 13 shows an interesting detail that you don't find in many bronzes. Here you can see that samples were taken from the bottom of the base to determine whether this bronze had the right composition and strength. It clearly passed the test, because otherwise it would have been destroyed. This sizable and heavy bronze fighter with its perfectly captured fighting posture makes a great statement piece on a desk or side table.
Our price for this rare and mint bronze boxer...

Decorative Large Pair of Wall Panels Depicting Scenes From Gilgamesh.
Located in Southall, GB
A extremely decorative large pair of carved wall panels. These panels are well carved with lots of detail, showing one male and one female figure. The carving is elaborate with depth, intricate curling foliage and minute detail such as the males hair and beard and the females wings and clawed feet. There are three lion cubs, their fur and faces clear and characterful.
The Female is possibly a attribute to Gilgamesh Ishta - Queen of the night or Lilith. According to Mesopotamian mythology she is the Goddess of love, fertility and sex. The male is likely to be Gilgamesh, hero of the ancient world.
This is a really exceptional and unusual pair of wall panels...

Antique Arts & Crafts crucifix with stunning hand carved details and an amazing patina.
This remarkable and good size sculpture of Christ (who has just bowed His head) on the cross is different to almost all others.
