About the Item
This wonderful sculpture of an ice bear playing with a blue ball is a design by the Austrian Sculptor Franz Barwig (1868-1931) dating to 1915-1920. The sculpture was executed by the Wienerberger Keramik company, who executed the works of many famous artists of the day such as Michael Powolny. At the age of 20 Franz Barwig was a student at the college of Applied Arts in Vienna, where he later taught the sculpture. Franz Barwig was an important sculptor of the Art Nouveau period, famous for his animal sculptures. He was a member of the Viennese Secession. Barwig spent time in the zoological garden of Hellabrunn in Munich, Germany, to observe and draw animals. Franz Barwig lived and worked several years in the United States.
