About the Item

A bronze finial sits atop an acrylic pedestal, resting on a wooden base with antiqued wood. Borrowing from the restrained order of ancient Greek architecture, Greek artist Liana Vassalou (b. 1948) imbues this piece with a poetic minimalism. Plinth-like in stature — reminiscent of a Doric column — it consciously references classical forms but in a playful fashion — placing bronze mechanical pipework in place of perhaps a vase or urn, in the tradition of objet trouvé. Signed at the base with date and surname.
