Goldscheider Vienna Art Déco Figure Striding Dancer With Train, by Lorenzl c1930
About the Item
Extremeley rare porcelain figurine around 1930:
Elegant dancer striding to the side with her upper body turned forward, wearing a knee-length, shimmering gray-pink trouser dress with floral decoration, yellow-red pearl strap and low-cut back, and a hood matching the dress and almost completely covering her hair, her arms resting at her sides against her hips while holding tightly to her back an orange train that reaches to the ground.
The figure is based on beige stepped and arched oval base with shading on the sides, artist's signature 'Lorenzl' on the top of the base behind the figure, below the overlying train.
Designed by Josef LORENZL (1892 - 1950), was an Austrian sculptor and ceramic modeler. His bronze statuettes often show graceful dancers with long legs and closed eyes. Lorenzl designed numerous ceramics for Friedrich Goldscheider and Keramos and was one of the most popular artists of Art Deco.

Josef Lorenzl
Josef Lorenzl was born in Vienna on 1st September 1892. He started out working at the Vienna Arsenal in the foundry, where he learned the techniques of bronze casting. Working from a studio in the company’s grounds, he was able to produce many bronze and chryselephantine sculptures. Lorenzl was captivated by the female form he became well known for his shapely dancing girls with long, elegant legs and closed eyes. Lorenzl also was a gifted ceramicist, producing pieces for Goldscheider.
