Art Deco Gilt Bronze Archer Sculpture on Black Marble Base by Otto Schmidt-Hofer
About the Item
This gripping Art Deco Gilt Bronze Archer Sculpture on Black Marble Base is by the artist Otto Schmidt-Hofer and originates from Germany, Circa 1920. This incredibly beautiful sculpture captures remarkable physicality and observation of the archers musculature with a beautifully depicted expression showing complete focus, determination, and ruthless decisiveness of this archer of antiquity. Wearing only a leather loin cloth and headband The archer firmly grips in his left hand the center of the bow which bends holding terrifying kinetic energy, his right hand pulls back the bowstring towards the shoulder of the same arm, while his gaze is steadily fixed picking an unlucky target below. The gilt bronze mountainside on which the archers stands is is sculpted with the same attention to detail as the figure. One observes beautiful edges and natural variation in and what seems to be the edge of a cliff, as well as the smallest pebbles and surface details, no least of which is the signature of the artist. Beneath the mountain side the entire sculpture rests on a black marble base achieved with remarkable precision, and balancing the gleaming characteristic of the gilt bronze with its deep and attractive hue and subtle white veining visible within. This piece will style beautifully in a wide array of interiors and settings from Art Deco to Mid-Century Modernist and Contemporary spaces. In Excellent Vintage Condition.
