Additional Information: This bronze is signed and dated by the artist "Csaki 65" in the base. It is also stamp numbered from the edition of 3 on the base. The bronze bears the stamp of Fonderie Valsuani, Paris, where it was cast. The original Greek name of the muse, κλειώ is stamped in the front of the base. Note: Csaky prepared nine maquettes representing the Greek muses that were to be used to create statues adorning a new building in Budapest, regretfully the project was never completed, but the artist created these nine beautiful maquettes each with their Greek name and the traditional symbol of association. In the case of Clio, the muse of history, she is depicted with a quill and a scroll. According to Hesiod, each of the muses – all children of Zeus, were each tasked with protecting a particular art. Provenance: The Art collection of Ben Gurion University, Beer-Sheva, Israel. Condition: Excellent condition.

Bronze Sculpture “Surrender 8”
By Frank Arnold
Located in Fresno, CA
Frank Arnold is viewed as one of the foremost abstract figurative painters and sculptors of our time. He is a living master guided by a personal mission to “turn on a light in the human soul,” through his passionate creation of “Messengers” from his deeper mind connection with Carl Jung's archetypal images, the collective unconscious, and Jungian Synchronicity. These unconscious forms from his deeper mind resonate as personal messages of universal acceptance, reaching out to the viewer. Arnold has been honored as IAD Artist of the year 2018 by International Artist Day, and 2013 FAC Horizon Artist Award. He has exhibited his artwork in numerous galleries, museums, and is in collections worldwide. Arnold divides his working days between oil painting in San Jose del Cabo, Baja Sur...
