"David, " Large, Superb Bronze with Half-Nude Male Figure by Atkins
About the Item
One of the most finely sculpted and executed bronzes we have ever offered, this 22-inch sculpture portrays David as a handsome, lithe young man, with a small stone in his hand, ready to hurl at Goliath. David is an enormously attractive figure, but everything about the figure is beautifully conceived and executed, including the intricately folded robe around his waist and legs, and the Classical cap upon his head. The sculptor is Albert Henry Atkins, who may be best known for the Coppenhagen Fountain in Everett Square, Boston. He also sculpted a bronze grille for the Cathedral of St. Paul, in St. Paul, Minnesota, as well as a series of small pieces for display in elegant homes.

"Sleeping Male Figure", Allegorical Bronze Bookend with Nude, Owl, Mask & Child
Located in Philadelphia, PA
Truly fine and extraordinary, this large and heavy bronze bookend, beautifully sculpted, cast and chased, depicts a sleeping male nude figure, his arm resting on a Classical mask, his body curled around an owl, and his left arm clasped by a small child. Given that the owl represents knowledge and wisdom, and the mask indicates art and theater, the sculpture is suffused with allegory and meaning. The sculpture is not signed, but is stamped 530/101 and shows an engraved inventory number, probably added by the first owner. The bronze has a lustrous patrina, and sits on an oxblood marble...
