Bust of North African Tribesman, 'DE CAÏD' by Friedrich Siegfried Goldscheider

About the Item

Bust of a North African Tribesman, DE CAÏD Friedrich Siegfried Goldscheider This exquisite portrait bust of a North African tribesman, titled "DE CAÏD," was masterfully executed by Friedrich Siegfried Goldscheider (1845–1897), founder of the renowned Goldscheidersche Porzellan-Manufactur und Majolica-Fabrik in Vienna. Based on a work by René Charles Massé (1855–1913), this piece stands 14 inches high, 10 inches wide, and 5 inches deep. It is intricately detailed in polychromed and gilt terracotta, giving it the appearance of a bronze casting. The bust depicts a bearded North African tribesman, or "DE CAÏD" (the Boss/Kingpin), facing left, adorned with a long scarf, and dressed in a buttoned, open jacket. It is elevated on a draped pedestal with a 4.25-inch square base. The sculpture is complete with numerous incised numbers and letters, adding to its authenticity and historical value. This magnificent piece is a testament to Goldscheider's artistry and craftsmanship, offering a striking and exotic addition to any collection.
