Classic Bronze Lion Statue by Josue Dupon Belgian Sculptor Art Deco
By Josue Dupon
Located in Oakland, CA
Classic decorative bronze by Josue Dupon. Classically trained, his work can be found throughout Belgium. Antwerp Zoo and other major installations. This unique work is from the period of 1896, Dupon was a contemporary of Carlos Bugatti who also was known for this style: realism and interpretations of the modern wild animals. Beautiful signature, stunning rendering and amazing quality. The posture of the male lion is very realistic, extremely life-like casting. This is where you see the connection from the Art Nouveau period and how it later became a very common direction also associated with the Art Deco period.
Josuë Dupon (also Josué or Josue Dupon) was a Flemish sculptor and engraver. He received his education through the National Higher Institute for Fine Arts (1887). After his studies he first worked in the studio of sculptor Clément Carbon in Roeselare. He was good friends with sculptor Jules Lagae. In 1891 he won a gold medal with the monumental sculpture group Samson killing the lion and he became second in the Romeprijs for sculpture. From 1905-1934 he was a teacher of sculpture at the Antwerp Academy.
Dupon was best known as a sculptor of realistic images of exotic animals. The placement of his Camemberter and two bronze groups at the entrance of the Antwerp Zoo confirmed that reputation. He also made busts, war memorials (Ichtegem, Berchem, Hoogstraten, Roeselare) and public monuments, such as the equestrian statue of Constant Lievens in Moorslede (unveiled in 1929). The statue Man...

Popeye Sailor European Sculpture Ebony and Metal Art Deco Hagenauer
By Werkstätte Hagenauer Wien
Located in Oakland, CA
Popeye the Sailor, a European Sculpture in the style of Hagenauer made of Ebony wood and Metal in the Art Deco style. We have had a few pieces in this treatment, style and materials. They are very rare to find. This one is particularly interesting since it is an homage to the character of Popeye. This sculpture has a slightly cubist feeling with the treatment of black ebony and silver including the navy anchor on its arm obviously inspired by the original Popeye.
It’s not a widely known fact that a real person inspired E.C. Segar, the creator of Popeye. We have discovered was fashioned to resemble this man Frank “Rocky” Fiegel, whose parents immigrated from Poland to the United States. Rocky was born in 1868-1947 and as an adult he joined the navy. He was considered very strong and smoked a pipe, all characteristics of the cartoon Popeye which became such an important icon of protection, not allowing bullying or to be bulled.

Art Deco Silvered Bronze Sculpture of Dancing Duo by I. Gallo
By Ignacio Gallo
Located in Oakland, CA
Ignacio Gallo was born in Valladolid, Spain in the 19th century. He worked from 1910–1935 specialising in statuettes of bathers, dancers, nudes and pagan goddesses. While working in Paris in the mid to late 1920s he created this piece of two women dancing. Unlike a nude sculpture, this gives us a glimpse of the era with the fashionable bobbed hairdo, and the shortened skirt.
The 1920s “Jazz Age” saw a great deal of same sex dancing partners some of it romantic but more often just the popularity of both social dance and “artistic” (think Isadora Duncan) as well as “cabaret” performance. This lively sculpture is a nod to all three forms.
Ignacio Gallo’s creations in bronze were made at the Marcel Guillemard Foundry which has an interesting history of its own. Guillemard worked first with Andre Fau...
