About the Item
This mysterious Ancient Cypriot Ceramic Sculpture of a Horse on Wood Plinth Base originates from Cyprus, 4th Century BCE. Features a beautifully sculpted form with carefully graduated curves and applied detailing of the harness and bridle. The applied detailing is partially intact, with subtly depicted musculature of the horse, particularly around the shoulders, hind legs, underneath the jay, and around the eyes and ears. Subtle transitions of form within a unified stable body provide an elegant and sophisticated presence, supported and framed by the rectilinear wood plinth base. A fascinating artifact of the ancients, this sculpture represents our unending desire to depict the features and beings of the surrounding world, a lovely testament to our innovative practice of design and depiction throughout time. This piece will style beautifully in a wide array of spaces and settings, from Mid-Century Modernist to Contemporary and Minimal Interiors. In Excellent Vintage Condition.

Hand-Sculpted French Cubist Abstract Sculpture in Terracotta Signed "Philip"
Located in New York, NY
This sophisticated and alluring Mid-Century Modern Sculpture was realized in France circa 1950. Executed in terra cotta with a oil rubbed bronze colored glaze, the work presents an abstract and dynamic form- bristling with verve. An elongated form rises from an elliptical base offering both smooth and curvilinear aspects as well as faceted ones concluding in a curved tongue-like appendage with a pointed end. Additionally, there is what appears to be a lug or nut cantilevering from side of the piece, suggesting metamorphosis or some kind of animatronic influence. The amorphic form recalls the highly stylized renderings of tools by Lee Lozano...
