About the Item
“Femme au Levrier” Art Deco statue bust by Raymond Leon Rivoire Sevres France circa 1937. This is a rare and important bust from the iconic Art Deco sculpture Raymond Rivoire. It was the First time I had seen this piece. It was manufactured by the famous Sevres company, stamped on the back, and signed R. Rivoire on the lower part of the bust. This piece fascinates me; we have sold the bronze statue a few times, and it is one of our favorites.
He made a bronze for the Normandie liner representing Neptune pulled by a marine horse (disappeared in the ship's fire in New York in 1942), a second copy of which still adorns a fountain in Cannes. Another of his major works is Diana and the Greyhound, also known as Artemis. Like Normandy, a monumental copy of this statue was crowned in the living room of the ocean liner L’Atlantique. Scattered memories of the work that followed this fire were found during the demolition. Drawings can be found in several museums (Louvre Museum, Newark Museum (New Jersey, United States), and the Cusset Museum, which houses many of its productions.

- Lucien Charles E. Alliot French Art Deco Bronze The Gazelles 1930By Lucien AlliotLocated in Oakland, CALucien Alliot French Art Deco Bronze The Gazelles 1930. The brown patina on a marble base signed on the bronze L Alliot and stamped bronze on the deer. This particular piece has exceptional rhythm where the two gazelles interplay in a movement depicting leaping over the hills or water—a very three-dimensional treatment showing the movement of the animals. Lucien Charles Eduoard Alliot (1877-1967), the sculptor, was born in 1877 Paris, France. His work was part of the sculpture event in the art competition at the 1924 Summer Olympics. He exhibited regularly at the Salon des Artistes Français, was a member and the gold medal in 1920, out of competition, and was a member of the sculpture jury from 1934 to 1939. Alliot was well known for his figurative sculptures, exhibited at the Salon de Paris for many years. He received a third-place award in 1907 (which included funds for travel expenses) and a first-place award l in 1920. After he declared himself out of the artistic competition, he became a jury member at the Salon evaluating sculptural works from 1934 to 1939. Alliot created several allegorical groups, La Paix in 1939, and several religious illustrations: Sacré Cœur in 1924, La Vierge Marie...Category

- Golf (Wall Plaque)By Viktor SchreckengostLocated in Fairlawn, OHGolf (Wall Plaque) Polychromed ceramic, c. 1930-1 Signed with the artist's initials: VS recto Very rare, only a few produced prior to the closure of Cowan Pottery Format: Round ceramic plate, 11 1/4 inches Designed by the artist while working for Cowan Pottery in 1930. One of Cowan's clients, an interior designer, requested plates decorated with different outdoor activities. Others in the series included "Swimming," "Tennis," "Polo," and "The Hunt." According to Henry Adams, the number of examples created was very limited due to the closing of Cowan Pottery in 1931. Very rare Condition: Good, with the usual craquelure of the glazes used. Note: Industrial design democratizes high style, and Mr. Schreckengost was widely considered among the most democratic industrial designers. He made, quite literally, the stuff of life — things found routinely in homes, backyards and garages in this country and around the world. He designed bicycles for Sears and everyday china for American Limoges. He designed children’s toys and pedal cars; flashlights, furniture and fans; lawn chairs, lawn mowers and golf carts; baby walkers and artificial limbs. In 2006 Mr. Schreckengost was awarded the National Medal of Arts, the country’s highest cultural honor. His work is in the permanent collection of major museums, including the Renwick Gallery, the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum and the Art Institute of Chicago. Mr. Schreckengost belonged to the first great generation of American industrial designers, which included luminaries like Russel Wright, Norman Bel Geddes and Raymond Loewy.
