About the Item

Introducing "Albatros," an evocative sculpture by the late Belgian artist Isabelle Thiltgès. Standing at an impressive 210 cm in height and 30 cm in width, this piece exemplifies Thiltgès' mastery in capturing movement and emotion through form. Crafted in 2021, "Albatros" is part of a limited bronze edition of eight, with this particular piece being number four. Each sculpture is cast upon command at the Fonderie Avangini in France, ensuring meticulous attention to detail and quality.​ "Albatros" is also available in a more affordable resin variant. The resin edition can be finished with either a bronze or marble patina, offering versatility to suit various aesthetic preferences.​ Isabelle Thiltgès, a self-taught sculptor, spent approximately thirty years in Paris before returning to Brussels, where she continued her artistic journey. Her sculptures are celebrated for their refined lines and the seamless interplay between solid and void, often exploring themes of movement and stillness. Thiltgès' works have been exhibited extensively across Europe and the United States, earning a place in numerous private collections.

Don Quixote - Resin and Metal Blue Sculpture of Horseman
By Angelo Canevari
Located in New York, NY
Angelo Canevari’s Don Quixote is a 38 x 44 inch mix media sculpture. It is made of metal, resin, blue automotive paint, and cardboard. Angelo Canevari's work is often inspired by classical themes and myths. In this sculpture, he revisited with a modern interpretation the famous character of Don Quixote of La Mancha, in the Spanish novel by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra. Almost Baroque in it's curvilinear shape rendered by the interlacing blue lines, the horseman and the horse emanates a superb emotional tension that culminates in the horse's red eye and the horseman's red head. This sculpture is part of a very limited number of works that the artist created at the end of his life. It has been featured in a book written by renowned writer Andrea Camilleri. Angelo Canevari is an Italian sculptor who comes from a long lineage of artists active in Rome since the 17th century. He has been commissioned several works by the Vatican including the Bronze Doors of the Cathedral of Belluno and the Vatican Coins.

Bucranium - Surreal Sculpture, Animal Sculpture, Green Metal and Resin Sculpture
By Angelo Canevari
Located in New York, NY
Angelo Canevari’s Bucranium is a 34 x 19 inch mix media surrealist sculpture. It is made of metal, resin, green automotive paint, and cardboard. It is a surrealist interpretation of the carved decoration, representing ox-skulls, commonly used in Classical architecture for the friezes of Doric temples. The same motif was also later used on Renaissance, Baroque and Neoclassical buildings. Canevari's contemporary interpretation is evident in the medium he chose to shape this artwork and yet it maintains the same commanding and monumental presence of the classical monuments that have inspired it..
