  • Pair of 19th Century Gilt and Silvered Bronze Sculptures of Women
    By Pierre-Eugène-Émile Hébert
    Located in Norwood, NJ
    Rare pair of bronze sculptures by Emile Herbért. Fine quality silvered and gilt bronze figures of a warrior woman and a poet women dressed accordingly with military attire and poetic words. Signed and foundry marked with the G. Servant mark. Pierre-Eugène-Emile Hébert, French, (1828 - 1893). A native Parisian, Hébert apparently lived and worked in the capital until his death. He was born in 1828, and studied sculpture privately, with his father Pierre (1804-1869) and Jean-Jacques Feuchère (1807-1852), both of whom pursued modestly successful careers in the Salon and as public sculptors beginning in the 1830s. Hébert learned extensively from their very divergent paths. Whereas Pierre Hébert...

  • Unique Handcrafted Lifesize Bronze Bust Sculpture of Our Dutch Painter Rembrandt
    Located in Lisse, NL
    Rare, large and stunning bronze bust of Holland's most famous painter. When we first saw this truly large, great looking and very well made bronze sculpture of Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn (1606-1669) we immediately knew we had to have it. Also, because bronze sculptures of Rembrandt really are a rare find. We have searched the worldwide web and we learned that there is not another one of this large bronze busts to be found anywhere in the world. Judging from the material, the patina and the way it was hand-crafted we date this work of art to 1960-1980 and this bust must have been made for either a private collector, an art institution/museum or perhaps for the owner of a gallery. Anyone who understands what it takes to create a bronze sculpture of this size and quality knows that this Rembrandt bust...

  • Unique and All Handcrafted Lifesize Vincent van Gogh Bronze Bust Sculpture
    Located in Lisse, NL
    Stunning and very rare (if not unique) bronze bust of one of Holland's finest painters ever. This life-size bronze head or bust sculpture of no other than Vincent van Gogh is special for several reasons and we are confident it will soon be enjoyed by a new private or institutional owner. First of all, we have never before seen or owned a bronze bust sculpture of this worldfamous Dutch painter. Secondly, when we searched the worldwide web we could not find another one like this anywhere in the world. Thirdly, and this is what makes this bronze extra special for us, this very rare (or possibly unique) sculpture was made in the van Gogh style...

  • Stunning & Powerful Altar Crucifix with Detailed Bronze Sculpture of Christ 1912
    Located in Lisse, NL
    Unique table crucifix and a wonderful work of religious art, dated 1912 and numbered. For us the most powerful statement will always be 'the truth will set you free'. It is what we have learned most from the life of Christ and of His teachings and it is the one thing we always think about whenever we look at a crucifix. Anyone who has tried to break down his/her ego and found a clearer consciousness in the process knows how healing and rewarding that journey can be. After that you can only be grateful for all the good things that are bound to come your way. Good things will come your way, because the universe needs people like you. Whomever created this amazing work of religious art too must have been inspired and motivated by the life of Christ, because how ever could anyone create a piece that is of such quality, so beautiful and so powerful at the same time. Both the beautifully designed bronze cross with the King of the Jews inscription and the amazingly detailed bronze corpus of Christ are of a quality that you will only rarely find on the open market. They are perfectly mounted on a stunning marble base and together they create one of the most impressive table or altar crucifixes...

  • Gothic Dragons Base Wrought Iron Altar Crucifix with Bronze Sculpture of Christ
    Located in Lisse, NL
    Unique table crucifix and a stunning work of religious art. For us the most powerful statement will always be 'the truth will set you free'. It is what we have learned most from the life of Christ and of His teachings and it is the one thing we always think about whenever we look at a crucifix.

After that you can only be grateful for all the good things that are bound to come your way. Good things will come you way, because the universe needs people like you. Both the beautifully designed and sizable wrought iron cross and the antique bronze corpus of Christ have an amazing patina and together they make this meaningful antique a true work of beauty. We had never before seen a wrought iron table cross and because of the coldness of the material and because it can be extremely time consuming to make one, it is not the first material of choice for most craftsman. However, when it is done with this kind of top quality workmanship then that changes everything. The sharpness of the details and the symmetry of the execution of this cross are second to none and what takes this Gothic altar...
