A attractive Art Deco silvered bronze car mascot modelled as a stylised cat in a seated position with excellent colour and detail, raised on a shaped marble base and signed Rigot ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Height: 15 cm Condition: Excellent Original Condition Circa: 1925 Materials: Bronze & Marble SKU: 9288 ABOUT Georges Rigot Georges Rigot (French, Act. 1920~1935) An influential sculptor working during the height of the Art Deco era. Renowned for his decorative figurines representing young women in period attire and stylised animal figurines. The Art Deco Period The Art Deco Period: although Art Deco derives its name from the great 1925 Paris Exhibition, ‘L’Exposition Internatlionale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes’, the term is now generally applied to the typical artistic productions of the 1920’s and 1930’s. It might best be characterised as an attempt to unite arts with industry, embracing the machine age and repudiating the old antithesis of ‘Fine’ and ‘Industrial’ art. The sources of the Art Deco movement include Egyptian and Mayan Art, Cubisim, Fauvism and Expressionism, heavily influencing the chief force underlying all Art Deco with the emphasis upon geometric patterns.
