"Mother & Child" Desk Sculpture by Ilya Schor

About the Item

A "Mother & Child" desk sculpture by Ilya Schor is a notable piece of Judaica art. Schor was a renowned artist and craftsman known for his famous artworks and evocative sculptures. Ilya Schor (1904-1961), was a Jewish artist and craftsman born in Złoczów (Galicia). He studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw and later in Paris. He emigrated to the United States in 1941, where he became well-known for his work in Judaica, including ceremonial objects, sculptures, and art. Schor’s work often draws on Jewish themes and symbolism, reflecting his deep connection to Jewish heritage and tradition. Schor’s sculpture is carved from stone and mounted on a wooden block featuring a detailed and expressive figure of a Mother enveloping her child protectively and endearingly. The subject of mother and child is a universal and deeply emotional theme, often explored in art to convey nurturing, protection, and familial bonds. Ilya Schor’s works are highly valued for their artistic merit and historical context, particularly among collectors of Judaica and 20th-century art. As a desk sculpture, it serves both as a decorative art piece and a meaningful symbol of family and continuity. It would be a significant item in a personal collection, serving as a reminder of cultural and familial heritage. Signed on the lower bottom of the back of the stone sculpture.
