About the Item
Austrian Orientalist cold-painted bronze lamp of a shoe cobbler
Austrian, Early 20th Century
Height 23cm, width 21cm, depth 16cm
The story presented by the makers of this sculptural lamp is set at a shoe cobbler’s workshop. Made in the traditional Viennese manner of cold-painted bronze, the piece is an outstanding example of high quality Orientalist design.
Three shoe cobblers are depicted working together in a traditional Orientalist building, one covered by textiles to protect them from the elements. The wall is decorated with a large pair of scissors, a tool often used by shoe cobblers.
In the foreground is a male figure reaching towards a wooden bench on which shoes needing repair are displayed. Behind him, sitting on a bamboo-supported table sit two other male figures. The first one is caught mid-speaking, in a pose suggesting he is excited. On his legs is a piece of textile. The man next to him is seen holding threads in both hands, repairing a vibrant red shoe. All figures are dressed in loosely fit clothing cold painted in vibrant shades of red and gold, their heads adorned with head coverings. Particularly bright are the red headpiece and the eye-catching red feet coverings.
The lamp is stamped ‘AUSTRIA’.
Depicting an unusual and charming Orientalist scene, this sculptural lamp is a testament to the impressive skills of early 20th century Viennese makers.

- Orientalist Austrian Cold Painted Bronze Lamp w/ 2 Figures Inside a Small RoomBy Bergmann FoundryLocated in Petaluma, CAThis charming little scene depicted here is so colorful and detailed that it could only have been executed by the premier maker of these bronzes, Franz Bergmann. It does bear his signature with the letter "B" inside an urn. What makes this so extra special is its diminutive size. Normally these smaller examples lack the quality of work that is seen here. The fact that it is a lamp is always a bonus and lit up at night in your home can only bring warmth and joy to the owner. The curtain is so crisply cast that it almost looks like fabric. It's all done with such attention to detail. A great example of an antique Vienna bronze lamp.Category
