Antique Hand Carved Gilt Wooden Church Statue of Saint Francis & Clare of Assisi
Located in Lisse, NL
For the collectors of unique and remarkable works of religious art. About ten years ago I was fortunate enough to have been invited to Italy for a week. In that week we visited the St. Francis Basilica in Assisi, the place where the world famous Saint Francis was born and where he is buried. For these unique sculptures to have found their way to us, again felt like a blessing. These amazing workmanship and aesthetically pleasing saint statues, we feel, were not created for one person alone, they were made to be seen and appreciated by a larger community. Those who know about Saint Francis will probably know about Saint Clare...

Richard Mteki Signed African Zimbabwean Shona Figurative Stone Sculpture
By R. Mteki
Located in Studio City, CA
A beautiful, wonderfully executed sculpture by renowned African sculptor/artist Richard Mteki (Born 1947) who lives and works in Zimbabwe. This piece is carved from serpentine stone which lends it its dark green coloring with splashes of yellow/lime highlights. The work is signed with his customary incised "R. Mteki" along the lower edge of the base. Richard Mteki's work is best associated with the Shona sculpture movement. In 1986 Mteki was commissioned by the Zimbabwean Government to create a piece for the National Sports Stadium in Harare, a piece depicting the Zimbabwe national bird. The sculpture was a massive undertaking, weighing over 1 ton and placed at the entrance to the stadium. He was again commissioned by the Government in 1982 with one of his pieces being given as a gift by President Robert Mugabe to the Nigerian head...
