Stunning Sculpture of Vishnu in Sandstone
By John Brevard
Located in Coral Gables, FL
This stunning sculpture of Vishnu in sandstone is pre-Khmer, from Cambodia and dates circa 7th century. The size of this elegant artifact is 29 x 12.5 x 34 and it is currently located in a showroom in Europe so shipping may take a bit longer than usual.
This piece is on a high museum quality metal base. This is a Classic and very fine example of the Angkor Wat style.

This is a large and heavy sculpture...

Bronze Sculpture by Emmanuel Villanis
By Emmanuel Villanis
Located in Pasadena, TX
Emmanuel Villanis comes from a family of Italian origin. From 1861, his parents returned to Italy to settle in Piedmont. He had fled Italy because the war of independence broke out, under the threat of Napoleon Bonaparte. In 1871, the artist enrolled at the Albertina Academy of Fine Arts in Turin; he follows the teaching of the sculptor Odoardo Tabacchi (1831-1905). As soon as he finished his studies, his master encouraged him to exhibit: his bust Alda, for example, was presented in Milan in 1881. In 1885, Villanis moved to Montmartre, a district of Paris that he never left. The artist's fame is built on his production of female figures. Aida, Judith, Delilah, Lucretia, Cinderella: her work brings together the great heroines of opera, literature, mythology and the Bible. Villanis also discusses certain types - the Bohemian, the Châtelaine, or the Parisienne - and several allegories, including Painting and Sculpture. Made mainly in bronze, sometimes chryselephantine, his sculptures subtly bear the mark of Art Nouveau, including the lettering of the title, which regularly adorns the base. His play on the patinas further adds to the finesse of the line, making Villanis one of the major sculptors of Art Nouveau. Regarding the casting of bronzes, he worked mainly with the Société des Bronzes de Paris and with Eugène...
