About the Item

In 2000 a Viennese public house released the first monograph about Walter Bosse. Illustrated with various pictures it shows his highly creative potential and his influence and impact on the Viennese brass. Born in Vienna 1904 Bosse was a student of Michael Powolny, Franz Cizek and Richard Riemerschmid. He initially worked with ceramic sold by Wiener Werkstätte, Augarten and Goldscheider. Most of the sculptures had a grotesque touch, lips, eyes, fingers showed an almost childish joy about details. His studies of facial expressions were known all over the world. This figure was made in the late 1930. The figure was executed in white and also in color. The white version is elegantly beautiful. The depiction of the putti figure had a long tradition in Austria. Michael Powolny was also known for it. Literature: ISBN 10: 385498071X ISBN 13: 9783854980711 Walter Bosse, Leben und Handwerk
