About the Item
Clearly inspired by the charismatic presence of Carmen Miranda on the stage and screen, with her vividly-colored dress topped with a hat overflowing with tropical fruit, this 1940s table lamp is graced with an stylized female figure capped with an abundance of fruit. The artist was Andrew Szoeke, who was admired in his day as one of the great graphic artists of America, putting his mastery of form and silhouette to work in furniture, type design, graphic design and Fine arts. His artisanry reached its peak in his elaborate furniture and decorative objects which featured his tour de force wood inlay, as here. One can detect burled maple, walnut, mahogany and exotic woods in various shades of blonde, reddish brown and blackish brown. The lamp base is an oblong form, surmounted by an accordian-form cylindrical final, with the lamp pole rising above. (Dimensions are for wood lamp base; with lamp pole, the piece is 21.25 inches high.)

"Exchange of Cultures, " High Style Art Deco Porcelain Lamp Base w/ Nudes by Robj
By ROBJ
Located in Philadelphia, PA
Illustrated in "Ceramiche Robj" and considered a major design by the renowned sculptor and ceramicist, this large piece was probably made in early 1930s to coincide with the debut of the Exposition Coloniale Internationale in Paris, which attracted almost 9 million visitors in less than a year. Rare and striking, this porcelain table lamp base depicts the globe surmounted by a tightly composed cluster of nude and semi-nude female figures representing cultures around the world. The women depicted here, all glazed in a gorgeous snow-white glaze highlighted in gold, are clearly representing a range of nations in Asia and Africa, probably coinciding with the nations that were part of the French Colonial Empire in the 1930s, before they won their freedom. Much like the one surviving building from the Exposition, now the Cité nationale de l'histoire de l'immigration, which features a massive bas relief mural...
