Robert Aitken, A Dance, American Art Deco Patinated Bronze Sculpture circa 1920s
By Robert Aitken
Located in New York, NY
Signed ‘AITKEN’, and ‘XOROS’ (Greek: Dance) on the plinth. Dimensions: Height 20 inches Width (top) 11 inches Depth 6 inches This remarkable in its expensiveness sculpture depicts a forest spirit – satyr, dancing and playing his reed simultaneously. With horns and horse ears, satyrs were endowed with the qualities of wild creatures with animal qualities, little thought of human prohibitions and moral standards. In addition, they were distinguished by fantastic endurance, both in battle and at the festive table. Their great passion was the passion for music, reed being one of satyrs’ main attributes. Robert Ingersoll Aitken (1878-1949) was a noted American sculptor, born in San Francisco, California. He became a noted sculptor who spent most of his career teaching at the National Academy of Design in New York City. He has done numerous portraits, full size and bust, of well known figures, and his work is in many collections and museums including the Smithsonian Institution and the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. For his early study, he was a painting pupil of Arthur Mathews...
