About the Item
Brilliantly sculpted and cast with very fine detail with a rich, lustrous patina, this celebrated bronze of a fully nude male archer was sculpted by Ernst Moritz Geyger in the 1890s and cast around 1900. His original, large bronze was exhibited at the Great Berlin Art Exhibition that year, and was acquired by Kaiser Wilhelm II. Later bronze castings were placed on the banks of the Elbe in Dresden, at Sanssouci Palace Park and in front of Hanover's City Hall. The artist worked in both Berlin and Florence, and died in Italy during World War II. The bronze's early casting is evident from its beautiful detail and patina, and it sits on an oxblood-red marble base, another unusual feature. It is signed and includes the mark of the H. Gladenbeck and Son foundry in Berlin.

"Spear Dancer", Spectacular, Rare Bronze with Male Nude by Brenda Putnam
By Brenda Putnam
Located in Philadelphia, PA
In an era when artists were capturing the exoticism and athleticism of modern dancers, such as Richmond Barthé's depiction of Féral Benga dancing with a large, curved sword or Paul Colin's drawings of Josephine Baker with her skirt of bananas, this sensuous presentation of a nude male dancer with a long spear stands out. The bronze was sculpted in 1926 by Brenda Putnam, who is best known for a series of bronzes showing children at play, often placed in gardens and parks. However, Putnam was ambitious to do more, leaving academic sculpture behind as she collaborated with architect Paul Philippe Cret to create the Puck Fountain for the Folger Shakespeare Library in Washington, D.C., executed a number of portraits in bronze, exhibited at the 1932 Olympics in Los Angeles, and created "The Crest" -- consisting of a a large male nude swimming...
