About the Item
French Art Deco Diana the Huntress Bronze by S. Melanie 1930s, crafted in the 1930s, stands as a testament to the artistic brilliance of the era. This extraordinary sculpture exudes a commanding presence through its size, weight, and the dynamic posture of the goddess Diana. With a blend of exquisite craftsmanship and an evocative portrayal, this piece captures the essence of the Art Deco movement, showcasing the intersection of modernity, elegance, and classical mythology.
Diana is depicted in a moment of poised intensity. Her body is rendered with remarkable attention to detail. In her hands, Diana cradles a powerful bow, a symbol of her prowess as a skilled archer. The bow is executed with precision, displaying an intricate interplay of curves and angles that exemplifies the geometric aesthetic characteristic of the Art Deco movement. Its sleek, streamlined design harmoniously complements the figure of Diana.
Salvatore Melani is an Italian artist (1902-1932)
The bronze rests on a black/white marble plinth. Diana the Huntress with her bow and attitude, excuses the artistic details representing this iconic Art Deco image. The condition is excellent and a very rare piece not seen before by Melani.

Dimensions in cm: Height 30 cm x Width 11 cm x Depth 18.5 cm Weight 3 kg Dimensions in inches: Height 1 foot x Width 4 inches x Depth 7 inches Weight 6.6 lbs Josef Lorenzl (1 September 1892 – 15 August 1950) was an Austrian sculptor and ceramicist of the Art Deco period. While at the Vienna Arsenal, Lorenzl produced many bronze and chryselephantine sculptures, and captivated by the female form he became famed for his shapely dancing girls with long, elegant legs and closed eyes. These pieces of his were signed "Enzl", "Lor", "R. Lor", "Renz" or "Renzl". Occasionally the name "Crejo" appears on his pieces, Crejo having been a painter and one of Lorenzl's friends, and who sometimes applied colour to the pieces. These joint works are sought-after items. The large majority of Lorenzl's figurines were attached to Brazilian green onyx plinths. Lorenzl's talents also extended to being a gifted ceramicist. He produced pieces for Goldscheider, working from a studio on company grounds. As with his chryselephantine pieces, his ceramic works were in great demand and became the embodiment of the Art Déco period. Famous amongst these is "The Butterfly Girl" after the famous dancer Niddy Impekoven...Category
