About the Item
Beautifully sculpted, cast and finished, this 1920s Swedish Grace relief sculpture is made from bronze and has an amazing patina. It was made in Sweden by an unknown artist. Art Deco / Swedish Grace.
Excellent condition.
The term Swedish Grace was coined by Philip Morton Shand, a British architectural critic, after he visited the 1930 Stockholm Exhibition and observed that the Swedes had abandoned the national tradition of graceful elegance they had cherished in the 1920s.
Artists of the 1920s drew inspiration from around the world and from many periods in history. Architects, designers and artists borrowed motifs from classical antiquity, ancient Egypt and China.
Paris was like Sweden’s second capital. Swedish artists such as Gösta Adrian-Nilsson, Otto G Carlsund, Siri Meyer and Vera Nilsson moved to the city. The great Paris Exhibition of 1925 brought an international breakthrough for Swedish design: elegant engraved glassware designed by Edward Hald and Simon Gate for Orrefors, Anna Petrus’ cast iron pieces for Näfveqvarn, Nils Fougstedt’s pewter artefacts for the newly formed Svenskt Tenn company, and Carl Malmsten’s furniture in exclusive wood species.
Art and design from a period of transition that laid the foundations of modern society.
