"Sculptor's Medal, " Art Deco Drawing of Nude, Bearded Sculptor and Goddess Diana
By Donald De Lue
Located in Philadelphia, PA
This bold and powerful drawing by Donald De Lue, who consistently sculpted in a high style Art Deco manner from the 1930s-1970s, was the final sketch for bas relief sculpture commissioned by Brookgreen Gardens in 1978. De Lue started his career executing several monumental granite reliefs for a Federal courthouse and post office in Philadelphia in the early 1930s, and for the following several decades produced dozens of important sculptures featuring attenuated, Mannerist figures. Here he depicts a nude male artist creating a sculpture of the goddess Diana, who hovers overhead with a crescent moon and stars. De Lue dated the drawing and dedicated it to Karen Tortorella. Brookgreen, established by Anna Hyatt...
