Antique Viennese Cold-Painted Bronze Sculpture with a Camel by Bergman

About the Item

Antique Viennese cold-painted bronze sculpture with a camel by Bergman Austrian, c. 1910 Height 39cm, width 31cm, depth 20cm Franz Xaver Bergman (1861-1936) is the artist behind this unusual sculptural desk piece. A camel stands majestically atop a rocky road. His rider, dressed in a flowing, cream garment holds a rope in one hand and a spear in the other. The male figure is looking towards the other male, who is dressed more vibrantly in shades of blue and red. Next to the camel is a large container, surrounded by two urns. The container can be used as a stationary holder. A bright green palm tree extends over all the features of the piece, aiding in the creation of a surrounding in which the scene might have taken place. The sculpture is stamped with Bergman’s mark, a ‘B’ in an urn-shaped cartouche, in addition to ‘GESCHÜTZT’ and an inventory number ‘2369’. A display of Bergman’s creativity and ability as an artist, this sculptural desk piece would make a superb addition to one’s office space.

Franz Xavier Bergman (1861-1936) was the owner of a Viennese foundry who produced numerous patinated and cold-painted bronzes with a range of subjects such as oriental, erotic, and animal figures. He was probably the most famous Austrian bronze foundry who is widely recognised for smaller cold painted bronzes with an extremely good attention to detail. Signed often with a ‘B’ or Bergman and a registration mark.
