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.

Canopo - Anthropomorphic Bronze Sculpture, Etruscan, Archaic, Monumental
By Angelo Canevari
Located in New York, NY
This bronze anthropomorphic sculpture is part of the "Canopo" series. With a modern interpretation, Canevari revisited the sacred vases of the ancient Etruscan civilization from the regions of Tuscany and Umbria in Italy. The Etruscans were a polytheistic civilization that believed that all visible phenomena were a manifestation of divine power. Canevari interprets the theme's secrecy and mysteriousness in this monumental yet intimate piece. The curved anthropomorphic and totemic shape of the sculpture opens into a magical inside, hiding more secrets and sacred objects. The two sides open like embracing arms, revealing a star-shaped medallion and a glass pendulum. The use of rings and solid bronze blocks hanging and protruding from the surface creates a theatrical play of light and shadows. Angelo Canevari is an Italian sculptor 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...
