About the Item
Excellent Goldscheider Art Deco ceramic figure of the 1920s:
Male figure leaning on a high pedestal with legs crossed and stretched forward, leaning slightly forward holding his goatee with his right hand, looking thoughtfully to the right, dressed in a tight-fitting, long-sleeved green suit with short bloomers, beige-colored stockings and green shoes to match the suit, over it a black rosé-lined cape with a protruding, wide, round collar and a tight-fitting hood that reaches deep and pointed into the forehead, a long, pointed sword to the left hand on a golden-yellow belt set with colored gemstones.
The figure is based on a black, oblong base, artist's signature 'Laurenzl' faintly on the back of the pedestal above.
Designed by Josef LORENZL (1892 - 1950), one of the most important designers who worked for the Goldscheider manufactory in the period of 1920-1940.

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.
