Art Deco Diana Huntress and Leaping Antelope by Le Verrier and Demarco Base

About the Item

This is Diana the Huntress, a theme often repeated in Art Deco folklore. What makes this piece so spectacular: It has the style, small size and all the elements. The quality is of the best petite bronze metal with special green patina, very heavy and well made. The movement of the piece shows elegance and substance. Diana is in a wonderful pose, one leg extended and holding a most fluid shaped bow. She appears to be effortlessly aiming her arrow at the leaping and graceful Antelope, stamps “made in France” on the back by the legs. The designer is Max Le Verrier on the sculpture and Demarco on the base. The piece was made at the Le Verrier foundry which created the epic sculptures most associated with the great Art Deco period in France. Le Verrier’s foundry produced not only his own work, but that of several famed Deco Sculptors including Le Faguays ( who also used the names Fayral and Guerbe) and Bouraine and Janle.
