Impressive artwork from the fifties

About the Item

This impressive and dynamic art work was handcrafted between the fifties and the sixties. It has a multiplex wooden back where all the metal parts are attached to. The metal pieces have been repainted in the past. The unique shape of the folded metal plates form a dynamic whole. The artwork consists of a careful composition of the folded steel with pastel color accents. Through thoughtful selection of the folds and color fields, there is always something new to discover about this work. The work is unique and different from every viewpoint. Sometimes you look straight at a plane of color while other planes blend into their surroundings due to the thinness of the metal plates. It is an interactive work that communicates with its surroundings. This piece will be an eye-catcher in your interior, while the delicacy of the metal plates will make it blend into your interior. The artist’s signature has been painted over in the past, but is still visible. We have not been able to trace the artist of this impressive work but this mystery gives it an extra dimension.

Impressive Pair of Bronze Furietti Centaurs, after the Antique
Located in Miami Beach, FL
Beautifully cast bronze copies of the Furietti Centaurs, one elder and one younger. Each is mounted on a bronze base and both are unsigned with no foundry marks. These bronzes are copies of the two Roman (or Hellenistic) monumental marble versions excavated at Hadrian's Villa in December 1736 by Monsignor Giuseppe Alessandro Furietti. The original models now reside at the Capitoline Museum in Rome. These bronzes were a popular subject for collecting in both the 18th and 19th century Grand Tour periods. Engravings of the pair were widely disseminated in Europe in the 18th century which increased their fame. Provenance: The Estate of John Nelson, a noted Los Angeles antiques dealer...
