About the Item

Otto Prutscher designed this lamp for the 1925 Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et industriels Modernes in Paris. It was manufactured by the Viennese bronze foundry Melzer & Neuhardt. Solid bronze casting; silk shade. Renewed electrification. It was exhibited in the pavilion designed by Josef Hoffmann. Apparently, Prutscher was awarded a gold medal for the design – he recorded this in his CV, and it is also mentioned in a congratulatory letter from the Vienna Arts and Crafts Association dated November 6, 1925. References: Hermi & Fritz Schedlmyer, Otto Prutscher, Architect and Designer between Tradition and Modernity, Volume 1; p. 334, note 176. The original photograph with the corresponding description is kept in the archives of the Vienna Museum of Applied Arts (MAK) (inv. number KI 10147 - 73).
