1884
About the Item
The bronze proposed here was initially presented in November 1878 at the Competition for the Encouragement of Brera. It is therefore one of the first celebratory works of the sculptor Ambrogio Borghi. The work was later exhibited at the “Esposizione Generale Italiana” in Turin in 1884 in a larger version, accompanied by the sculptor’s tools. The smelters, as can be seen from the engraving, are the milanese "Barigozzi and Barzaghi" of whom Borghi was also an assistant. The work of the latter is rendered in detail, with extreme cleanliness and precision, the smoothing of the surfaces and the chiseling underline a care in keeping with the importance of the work.

- Victor Salmones Signed Bronze Bust of a Young ChildBy Victor SalmonesLocated in Los Angeles, CAAn untitled signed bronze sculpture by the Mexican artist, Victor Salmones (1937 - 1989) from an edition of 10. Numbered 1 of 10. Signature "Victor Salmones. 1/10" in cast. In excellent original condition. Victor Salmones (1937-1989) was the most widely known sculptor living and working in Mexico during his lifetime. His sculptures won him universal acclaim and are held in the collections of museums, corporations, cities, universities and private collectors in some 30 countries. During his career, he was highly sought after and increasingly involved in the execution of commissions for major public works around the world. Salmones developed his love and talent for creating sculpture by working with clay in high school. He attended the Instituto de Bellas Artes (Mexican National Institute of Fine Arts), where he was an apprentice to the Bauhaus master, Otto Hoffman. He was trained to use the exacting, age-old lost wax method of casting and worked principally in bronze. Hoffman's encouragement led to the opening of Victor's own sculpture workshop in Cuernavaca in 1966. In 1967, Salmones’ fluid bronze “Adam” won first prize at the Biennale Exposition of the National Museum of Modern Art. His work continued to win the highest critical acclaim at subsequent Biennale expositions, and in 1971, over hundreds of entries, his life-size bronze Narcissus...Category
