About the Item
Christian Thomsen (1860 Kolding - 1921 Copenhagen), Carving boy, design around 1915, execution 1966. model number 905. First choice. Porcelain with underglaze painting. 18.5 cm (height) x 9 cm (length) x 9 cm (depth). With the initials of Christian Thomsen on the back of the plinth, marked and numbered under the base.
- in perfect condition
- Immersed in concentration -
The boy is completely absorbed in the activity of carving, which is emphasised by the fact that we can barely see his finely carved face. What we do see, however, is the artistically designed incision of the carving knife into the stick. It may be a fishing rod, which complements the net draped around his shoulder. Despite the moment depicted, there is a timelessness to the image due to the boy's concentration.
GERMAN VERSION
Christian Thomsen (1860 Kolding - 1921 Kopenhagen), Schnitzender Junge, Entwurf um 1915, Ausführung 1966. Modellnummer 905. Erste Wahl. Porzellan mit Unterglasurmalerei. 18,5 cm (Höhe) x 9 cm (Länge) x 9 cm (Tiefe). Rückseitig auf der Plinthe mit den Initialen von Christian Thomsen versehen, unter dem Boden gemarkt und nummeriert.
- tadellos erhalten
- In Konzentration versunken -
Der Junge ist ganz in die Tätigkeit des Schnitzens versunken, was dadurch unterstrichen wird, dass wir sein fein ausgearbeitetes Gesicht kaum wahrzunehmen vermögen. Was wir jedoch sehen, ist das kunstvoll gestaltete Einschneiden des Schnitzmessers in den Stock. Möglicherweise handelt es sich um eine Angelrute, die ein um die Schulter gehängtes Fischernetz ergänzt. Trotz des gezeigten Moments strahlt die Darstellung aufgrund der Versunkenheit des Jungen eine Zeitlosigkeit aus.

Pecheur / - Full of anticipation -
Located in Berlin, DE
Adolphe Jean Lavergne (1863-1928), Pecheur, c. 1900. Brown patinated bronze with rectangular cast plinth on a green marble base (3 cm high), total height with hinge 37 cm, width 9 cm, depth 8 cm, weight 2.9 kg, signed “Lavergne” on the plinth.
- Base with old drilling and a few oxidized areas, patina occasionally rubbed, somewhat stained in the folds.
- Full of anticipation -
This bronze is the larger, highly detailed version of the fisherman that made Parisian artist Adolphe Jean Lavergne famous. In preparation for fishing, the boy prepares his rod before heading out to sea. The attachment of the iron ring and the rope behind him suggest a quay wall and a boat moored there. However, the depiction is entirely focused on the actual action of the young fisherman: With equal skill and concentration, he bends a hook to connect it to the fishing line. The contrast with his casual clothing, the loose-fitting trousers, the open shirt with its "wild" folds, and, last but not least, the sun hat boldly perched on his neck, reinforces the impression of the attentive care with which he goes about his work. His gaze makes him appear absorbed, as if he has forgotten the world around him and yet he is visibly filled with anticipation of fishing.

- Sockel mit alter Bohrung und wenigen oxidierten Stellen, Patina mitunter berieben, in den Falten vereinzelt etwas fleckig.
- Voller Vorfreude -
