Rembrandt Bugatti "Panthère assise" Bronze Sculpture
By Rembrandt Bugatti
Located in New York, NY
In "Panthère assise" also known as "Seated Panther," Bugatti seems to have been concerned primarily with musculature. The uneven surface exaggerates the contours of muscles which in turn causes a curious effect: weightiness from the amplified muscles and lightness created by the myriad reflecting planes. Bugatti’s sculpture relies on asymmetry, with nearly half of the composition occupied by the panther’s horizontally extended tail. The curve of the tail rises, flowing into the S-shaped arc of the panther’s movement, accentuating the dynamic form of the great cat. Product Details: Item #: B-21648 Artist: Rembrandt Bugatti Country: France Circa: 1912 Dimensions: 8.625" height, 4.625" width, 14.25" depth. Materials: Bronze Signed: R.

Rembrandt Bugatti "Panthère au repos" Bronze Sculpture
Located in New York, NY
In the "Panthère au repos" also known as "Panther in Repose", Bugatti seems to have been concerned primarily with musculature. The uneven surface exaggerates the contours of muscles which in turn causes a curious effect: weightiness from the amplified muscles and lightness created by the myriad reflecting planes. And while this cat is sculpted in movement, it has a posed appearance.
